I’m more offended by infanticide than what was (probably) just an offensive joke.
Blackface cosmetic used in a theatrical staging presentations goes back hundreds of years very probably used in staging Greek and Roman as well as Shakespeare’s plays.. More often than not it was used because the story line called for a a black person who was not available to perform in whatever it called for.
While the technique has been often used in satire. Political objectors to the characterization portrayed instead of labeling it as a abuse,are now condemning the means used (blackface) and are calling any use of blackface as racist instead of targeting the story line and the source. Demonstrating just how far we are allowing the revisionists pervert and poison a means of communication to promote their guilt agenda.
