As I finish this, I love how this editor from Jezebel put it:
Quote:
it's fun to play with fashion and makeup and fashion has a history of provocation and pushing boundaries. But when you paint your face darker in order to look more 'African', aren't you reducing an entire continent, full of different nations, tribes, cultures and histories, into one brown color?

I apologize to those who are tired of this. But it is important to know that blackface (used by whatever race) is wrong. Goodnight!
