We Accept Asian Kids With Funny Hats
By Guest Contributor Angry Asian Man, originally published at Angry Asian Man

The above sign was spotted in the neighborhood of Ditmas Park, Brooklyn. Seriously. Seriously? I’m aware that this sign is probably intended to invoke a sentiment of multiculturalism and racial inclusion. But surely, there could have been a much better way of illustrating what I’m guessing is an Asian child. I mean, come on, the conical rice paddy hat? Silly. We only wear those on special days. (And dude, is it me or does that other kid have gray skin?)
