The article discusses the outrage over a racist cartoon that mocked the Indian crew of a ship involved in the Baltimore bridge crash. The cartoon was posted by an American webcomic a day after US President Biden praised the ship’s crew, most of whom were Indians, for their prompt Mayday call. The cartoon depicted the crew as disheveled men wearing only loincloths ahead of the collision.

The ship, identified as the Dali, had crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, causing it to collapse and resulting in six presumed fatalities. Despite the tragedy, the Indian crew received praise from US President Joe Biden, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, and other prominent figures for their quick thinking that potentially saved more lives.

However, the cartoon has drawn criticism for both undermining the ship’s crew and for its racist portrayal of Indians. Indian economist Sanjeev Sanyal pointed out that a local pilot would likely have been in control of the ship at the time of the tragedy. He also noted that the crew had warned the authorities, which is why the casualties were relatively few for such a disaster.
