"Exhibits - No Date #3" folder. National Dairy Cattle Congress.
Crowd at a Kleen-Maid display. Man wearing a KWWL shirt. Kids wearing paper "Indian" hats. Signage says, "Fried with Rath's Rilco & Shortening," and "Run a donut dunking party." Vote posters and "Dunkers Bib" on the backboard of the display. Kleen-Maid bread display. Children are sitting and eating behind a banner that says, "Official dunking table."
Stamped on back: White Studio, 927 West Fifth, Waterloo, IA, dial 3-5651"
NOTICE:
This image is racially offensive by today’s standards. It is a reminder of ways white Iowans have appropriated the imagery and symbolism of First Nation People. This photo participates in the racism that was normalized and accepted by the dominant culture, but that has always been critiqued by Native peoples. We include this photo in the archive to ensure that past cultural practices are remembered, interpreted, and dismantled.
