Black people are more sensitive about stuff like this than white folks. Happy?

Then again, maybe as a people they've had to endure just a little bit of bullshite that we haven't, don't you think? Just a little?

Only more recently I suppose. Not overall by any stretch. And that has little to do with say, the Hough example.

And maybe you should go back and research some American History... Irish slaves were around just as long as Black slaves.

Are you kidding? Read the Political Talk board, or even SFP's posts on how the world is disrespecting men.

This world is full of white people getting hysterical about silly things.

not true, the people offended by blackface are white people who are embarrassed/feel guilty

I think it's completely silly to be offended by it

It creates more barriers between blacks and whites. So we aren't allowed to dress like a black character, and they aren't allowed to dress like a white character? wtf?
