Bananas and monkeys when referring to a mostly black rival is ok
You’ll see banana suits at about 50 college football games tomorrow, just because it’s something random that teenagers do.

Maybe you’re the racist for assuming it has to have something to do with black people.

Amazing how a picture of summer camp staff in Wisconsin gets used for a high school football game in Alabama in order to promote “racism”

Ridiculous. If you ignore this, no one ever hears about. Now millions of people now know the Administration at Pickens thinks there school is filled with a bunch of monkeys.

You can be offended by anything if you go out of your way looking for things to be offended by.

I don't get the racial component.
The safari, as in African safari, I guess. I cannot see the costumes, but perhaps one of them is the offender.

Implying that the black team are akin to wild animals


They are implying that the black team represents MONKEYS. That's what the symbol for the banana is. It's an old racist idea from the Jim Crow South.

And some of you refuse to acknowledge that something is absolutely considered racist.


Everything is racist if you want it to be, which you clearly do.

Sounds like a 1A team that happens to be black and is 2-3 (with one of those wins a forfeit) doesn't want to lose to a 3A school that is 5-0 and predominantly white.

Can you imagine being that weak of a staff/administration to do this lol

Bananas and monkeys when you’re the mostly white rural school playing the mostly black inter county rival is a recipe for being called out. It’s tone deaf and dumb on Gordo’s part, even if many on here will defend it.

Yes, you do. They’re playing a predominantly black school and they’re dressed like bananas and wearing monkey shirts. They’re either being racist or they’re really stupid. Or probably both.

No, the “non racists” are being racist and inferring it.
