Nick and Courtney Politis were getting ready for their daughter's first birthday party a week ago when they got a call from a fellow parent of a child who attends Studio Kids Daycare in Little River.
"She calls me and she's like, 'You won't believe the photos that were sent to me from this classroom,'" Courtney Politis said. "... She told me they painted all the kids' faces black and said, 'Happy Black History Month.' I couldn't believe it. My brain was malfunctioning."

The racist history of blackface dates back to the 1830's. Minstrel performances typically characterize Black people as lazy, ignorant and thieves.
Black face is bad for little kids but drag queens are ok.

Doesn’t Miami have enough black faces to go around?

LOL, 60 years ago, I was Willie Mays for Halloween. My mother rubbed burnt cork on my face and arms for effect. I guess that disqualifies me for public office.

I am confused.
If a man puts on a dress, lipstick, tucks his junk away, and says he is a woman. No one has a problem.
Why is that if someone puts on makeup to look like a person of color cause people lose their minds?

I don’t get it. We are told blackface is to be condemned and womanface is to be celebrated. Aren’t they both pretty much the same thing—omeone pretending to be someone he isn’t?

There's a lesson to be learned by these children... They could grow up to be Prime Minister of Canada. Then again, Trudeau was an adult when he wore blackface so maybe there isn't a lesson after all.

When did blackface become an evil racist thing deserving of righteous wrath?

So they think its all right for grown men to put on their consumes and pretend that they are women?
Then why can't white kids play "make believe" too?

Progressive Democrat Sarah Silverman:
To: artichokegrower
Was born in Gary Indiana at the same hospital as Michael Jackson.
Had bi-racial friends since I was 5-6 years old in the early 60’s.
When MLK talked about “Judging people about the content of their character, not the color of their skin.”
As a kid I thought DUH! Who doesn’t.
My black friends were kind, fun to be around, and liked the same cereal and cartoons I did! Who cares what color they are???
Later I discover racism and only saw it on the left.
I also discovered William F. Buckley in the 7th grade. He shaped my political life.
Now we are watching the the re-assassination of MLK.

Nobody died when I was in first grade and we put on the play, “Little Black Sambo” who, I guess actually was from India, but there was black face.
I didn’t have to do black face, as I was a pancake.

Sorry, but why are you letting a STRANGER taking care of your kids? Is it for the Caribbean vacation, the Mercedes and money? Why not enjoy your kids, because other morons won’t give a F about your kids. Those people will move on if they get a $5 raise from another employer.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Apparently some people don’t know when to be offended or flattered. Marcus Aurelius had the best approach to offensive people.
