| Summary: | This research explores the element of the colonial laughter in Leon
Schuster’s projects, Mr.Bones and Sweet and Short. I engage with the
theories of progressive black scholars in discussing the way Schuster
represents black people in these projects. I conclude by

supremacy through their projects, seek/s to normalise. |
