"What is it with all the soldiers in blackface?"

It's actually whiteface. They are supposed to be dead or represent death.

This is the same schtick they had been doing since even before Operation RAW (in Sepember 1970, where Kerry spoke alongside Jane Fonda).

They re-enacted the supposed atrocities being commited by US troops in Vietnam. They did this at Valley Forge and the surrounding area in 1970 and on the Mall in 1971.

They also threw blood around. In DC they threw blood on the Capitol steps, etc., as well as people.

It's actually whiteface.

I thought it was called blackface because it was how they used to illustrate Black people long ago.

One would have to ask, where did they get the blood? maybe we can get PETA after them.
