Should go harder IMHO. This ad from the National Congress of American Indians does a good job.
Yeah the only issue here is "Caucasians" is roughly similar in emotional weight to "native Americans."
Shirt should say like, "crackers" or something
Even that word has no pull nowadays. I don't know any white people that are even bothered by it in the least. I am one half Caucasian and I know for sure that it has no affect at all on me. I think it's a kind of funny word, actually. We need something with more spice to it for sure. Mayo monkies? Snow roaches? Marshmallow minions?
Cracker doesn't even have enough contextual weight. Whitey is about as heavy as I can think of and even that doesn't carry much weight for the people it should.
Source: I'm literally whiter than Casper the friendly ghost, and I actually care. The Americans I'm talking about just don't care.
