Black sheep and UDC/SVP. Racism in Switzerland



I have photographied ,during a wonderful day I will never forget, these black sheep in Fribourg, Switzerland. Like this view first but then watching it, I realized that I shot a political photo not only something I believed as very beautiful.

I explain me .. history . in 2007 Swiss People’s Party (UDC, conservative political party) has caused debate with the design of a propaganda poster. The infamous “black sheep” poster (you can here this creepy poster http://img.timeinc.net/time/daily/2007/0709/postcard_pomy_0921.jpg depicted three white sheep kicking a black sheep out of Switzerland, accompanied by the caption “for greater security”, demonstrating the party’s tendency to play on populist fears.

The iniative was largely rejected by Swiss people.

And 2 years after, I'm very pleased to see that black sheep are still quietly feeding on.

For me, the real black sheep in Switzerland is this party. Not only for me thankfully.

ps : if you want to know more about this affair, please read this excellent article of Time Magazine http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1664269,00.html

Anyway... I don't care. Imagine ...
