Looks at media coverage of the incident and use of the term, 'Black Velvet'. Note from author: "Terms historicised in this article remain offensive and have continuing power to offend. This article attempts to dispel and challenge the meanings conveyed by the term ‘Black Velvet’ by tracing its use in print media and thereby intervening in the attitudes it disseminated"
