2 what is racist about watermelon?

1. Judging by the picture, I agree, though I can’t rule out the kid being of mixed racial/ethnic heritage. It’s an odd choice for a costume, so it wouldn’t surprise me if someone at Fox thought it would be fun or clever to use it to stir up some people.

2. Watermelon was a stereotypical trope often used to characterize black people in minstrel shows.
