- Description:
- Nutcracker.
Much material like this nutcracker, collected as black memorabilia, can be rightly considered offensive because of the way black people are represented. At the same time, the most offensive pieces are often the most valuable as collectibles; this is because for many people, including African Americans, this material is a tangible way to remember and preserve the past in order to make sure that this history is not repeated.
