2 of my non-white friends (one black, one dark indian) dressed up in white face/dress for one Halloween. People didn't see that as being offensive, but I suppose it isn't the sameblack people can't be racist.
black face has a historic past that is associated with racism and stereotypes
what face not so much
also black people can be racist but that is besides the point
Blah blah blah dude, I know the history of black face. I'm just pointing out that wearing white face and pretending to be awhite "stereotype" is offensive to some. It's a little hypocritical cry racism yet condone "prejudices", mocking and stereotyping ofother groups. You can't have your cake and eat it too.Originally Posted by Rell

END THREAD
What do you guys think? I am not black so I can't say I have a legitimate opinion on this. Right now, I don't see what the fuss is about. More info to come I guess. Racial profiling I completely abhor but this seems like an overreaction.
exactly. that's the author's point. you (and the perpetrators) just don't get it...

On a more serious note, come theon.
I saw an Asian guy with a painted brown face dressed as Lil Wayne. There's nothing in the history books on that one. Is that racist too?
The Cheerleader did the EXACT same thing, but she's not allowed to because she's white? THAT'S CALLED RACISM.
Of course, I didn't see this girl in person, but if she didn't do anything to exude a feeling of hate, then what's the problem?
we have the right to freedom of expression. they could paint themselves black and carry around watermelons and chicken legs and it would still be ok imo. I wouldn't have anything against a black person doing the same with white stereotypes. It might tick me off a little but I understand that that individuals freedom ends where my nose begins. They can do whatever they want
of course it would be ok to you? please tell me what horrible stereotypes there are that are 99.9% of the time associated with white people
i think the Cal Ripken thing is just as stupid...does he look anymore like Ripken because of it?

She's not allowed to do it cuz its blackface...if the asian guy did it then people would have a problem with that too...you can dress as a person without painting your skin...
that stuff on her face didnt make her look anymore like Wayne did it?
