Blackface we here is offensive to blacks that are reminded of some sort of latent purgatory that someone suffered in their past lives.
It is however being removed from almost every aspect of life.
For instance there is Robinsons Jam Golliwog
I never really thought of it as an issue…… that said if others are offended by it I guess there is no argument………………..
“It’s been nearly 200 years since white performers first started painting their faces black to mock enslaved Africans in minstrel shows across the United States. It was racist and offensive then, and it’s still racist and offensive today.
Is it any less racist that that of that Golliwog? or those 1930’s films?
