A white man wearing blackface angered protesters near the White House on the night of August 27-28, in the hours after President Donald Trump gave his Republican National Convention speech.
Footage shows a man with dark colouring on his face being called racist by protesters as police work to separate him from demonstrators.
A black man is then heard saying thats blackface before hitting the man across the face, sparking a police chase.
Anti-racism protests have been ongoing in the city over recent days, fuelled by the officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake that month.
Protesters were also out that night in opposition to US President Donald Trumps Republic National Convention that was being held at the White House.

Where was the governor of Virginia last night?
Or was he the one wearing the Klan outfit. He's never said.

LOL!
Like the naked dude that tries to run across the football field at half-time.
There’s always a few dummies out there who try to see if they can get away with it.

And on the videos made during the shootings in Kenosha, there are white rioters calling Kyle Rittenhouse a n*gger, but nobody beat that white guy up.

It was either Al Jolson or Ralph Northam.

It was either Al Jolson or Ralph Northam.
Or Fidel Castro's son, Justin Trudeau.

I wonder if that’s the same guy that did this at a protest in Canada a few years back?

I thought de Blasio was Fidel Castro’s son.

There is no scientific basis for the concept of race. Racism does not exist—only blatant stupidity.

Sometimes I have to wonder how people can be so stupid. Not enough predator animals roaming loose. In the past, they would take care of stupid ones.

Wearing blackface is legal and protected by the Constitution. Anyone attacking someone for wearing it is violating the victim’s civil rights.
