Enlighten me, Megan, what black person EVER got in trouble for “whiteface”?
I remember one in the movie MINSTREL MAN. A black man in white face walks through a crowd of rowdy whites at a minstrel show and proclaims...”I AM THE ONLY WHITE MAN HERE!”
Minstrel entertainer...:”And why are you the only white man here?”
“BECAUSE ALL THE REST OF YOU ARE REDNECKS!”
The crowd exploded.
He was found hanging out in an alley the next morning.
Meanwhile, every Day of the Dead, many of the Hispanics put on whiteface to look like a skull, and no one complains.
