rp @workingclasshistory: 21 September 1908, William White, a Black man, was hospitalised by white patrons in Hanover, Pennsylvania, as part of a racist carnival game. White worked as a target in a popular game in the US called "hit the c**n", which was also known as "hit the n****r baby", "African dodger" and other names. It was played all over the country from New York to Florida to Indiana and elsewhere at least from the 1880s to the 1950s, at carnivals and public events like soldiers' reunions and Labor Day festivities. Pictured, for example, is a photograph from a 1942 YMCA brochure for a children's summer camp in Wisconsin.
