I do hope that there are more royalties than just an action figure heading Tariq’s way.

Today, Corn Boy. Tomorrow, Corn Pope. Eventually, maybe even the Corn God.

For real. We don’t need this to be another case of white folks (based on the bearded avatar of the toymaker’s account) profiting off the labor and likeness of Black folks without compensation.

Reading today about Frank Drake and Pioneer 10’s golden record, I thought, “Wouldn’t it be great if Tariq’s take on corn could end up on some future golden record”… and then I thought, “Bad idea. We wouldn’t want these guys paying us a visit.”
