The right to get offended is apparently not a part of white privilege.

If you don't know by now that being racist is an act reserved for whites only and something that blacks aren't capable of, I don't think you will ever get it.

White face is just as cool as black face.

What I think is hilarious is that people think the mere act of a white person darkening their skin with makeup is "black face."

Yes. We were not the ones who were enslaved.

Whiteface was not a racist costume in the 1800s.

It was the other way around, that's why blackface is wrong.

Pretty simple.

We weren't around back then. Neither were they. I didn't enslave anyone. My relatives fought on the Northern side. Why am I being punished.

Whiteface is a racist costume now since they weren't around back then either.

Not so simple.

The racial problem will never go away as long as all of us aren't playing together on the same level grounds.

you really want to wear black face that bad?

Bottom line, who cares. If blacks don't like it because they say it has roots in traditional racism and slavery on account of whites, I say don't wear it and drive on.

It just seems to me we have more important issues to worry about as a human race than this kind of nonsense.

Getting offended is Minority Privilege.
