The time to do that is behind closed doors with your friends

You can’t have an honest convo now tho cuz too many retards are just trolling

I used to wonder why we get mad at Black face now...like the Jimmy Kimmel and Fallon shyt...and then I watched it and Jimmys accent pissed me off

But I know if u give whites an inch they will take 100 miles

I don't have a problem with the general argument that some white people are indeed confused and (above all) threatened by conversations of race, and thus want to be able to ask "stupid" questions safely without fear of being called a racist. That's all well and good. But...what does that have to do with an issue that's pretty cut and dry in terms of...blackface? Where's the ambiguity? Where's the confusion? What is the "stupid" question that needs to be asked? The blackface on display in that picture was blatantly racist, and since then we've seen even WORSE photos revealed.

This is not some foreign issue. Blackface is not some obscure issue. This was settled a long fukking time ago.
