I love bathroom art. It is pure, raw and uncensored democracy. Here you can have a range of information from promiscuous scribbles to political propaganda. Too bad i am away this weekend and cannot upload some of the Illini finest from my cam, but here is just another good picture from some anonymous men's bathroom. It is interesting to think about what it says. It is clearly written against the white/southern conservatives, due to the syntax. Here a man is trying to say that he likes a free country because although he is of a different color he can peacefully live within it. And to those white people who believe in pure/nazi-like white society he advises to leave the country and create incest on the island, where they area alone. The message here would be a political one. It is interesting to sit in that bathroom and actually read what it says. And also i wonder how many people read this expression a day. In a way bathroom with drawings like these is like a newspaper by common men. It clearly expresses the inner world of the everyday Joe who takes a chance of catching some unknown disease by sitting on this disgusting toilet.Val
