Mommy I named him sugar

This illustration represents rhetoric; when a young slave boy tells his mother, he wants to name his white dog sugar, the young boy believes it is an appropriate name because of the color of sugar and he feels the dog is so sweet and adorable.

The painting represents historically ugly rhetoric and is one of those ideas that’s often repeated but not quite proven.
