Charles E. Chambers (artist), “Grow White Corn For Extra Profits,” c. late-1930s. Offset lithography on Paper. 32 x 21 11/16 in. Published by the American Corn Miller’s Federation, Chicago. Collection of Civil Rights Archive/CADVC-UMBC, 2005.202. This poster for the American Corn Millers’ Federation informed farmers about the new-found popularity of products made from white corn—such as tortillas, taco shells, hominy, and grits—instead of the usual yellow variety. The ear of corn dwarfs the wide-eyed child, her legs suggestively straddling its huge phallic form. The image defiles its African-American subject in order to emphasize the whiteness of the corn and the economic value of a white, over colored, product. - UMBC
