I found the caption evocative and it educated me about the study site while also contextualizing the discourses at work. The contextualization was necessary for me as a foreigner to get a clearer sense of the racial politics in the USA, and particularly at this study site. The most powerful ethnographic insight generated for me was how what can at first appear to be a convivial representation can be in fact deeply informed by an historically persistent binary logic of clean/unclean, purity/danger, subject/object, inclusion/exclusion, etc. that underwrites what is a violent white supremacist place-making.
