Thread Name: Mummers and Racism
Subject: RE: BS: Mummers and Rascism
Strollin' Johnny, your question reflects a basic ignorance of race issues. Blacks have no racist traditions of mocking whites by painting their faces white, and they have never tyrannized whites in Britain, the US, or anywhere else in Europe. Their homeland numbers in Africa were decimated by European and American colonists.

So your attempt to suggest it would "be the same thing" if blacks dressed up in white face to cruelly mock whites, is idiotic.
