Blackface....

[earthbrown]

On Halloween last year, a student at Geneseo State College, decided to dress up as Michael Vick, complete with jersey, 2 or 3 stuffed pitbulls, and BLACKFACE.

This caused a shitstorm in the College and made headlines in local news for weeks, people doing the unusual whining, college issuing a statement from the kid, in liberal jargon, much too cookie cutter to have actually been written by the kid.

The shitstorm is still going...

My brother works at the college as a professor, ever since this incident they have been bombarded with MANDATORY meetings, forums, and videos on racial tolorence and the like.

As a response to this incident and the storm it caused, the University has decided to lower their admission standards and hand out a boatload of free rides to boost the african-american population of the school from its current level of 6% to 12%.

This seems like liberal lunacy to me, I dont see anything wrong with the costume for one reason, THE KID WAS DRESSED AS A SPECIFIC PERSON(Michael Vick), not a generalization or stereotype of an african-american.....but again guilty whites have blown this out of proportion.

Prepare yourself for an onslaught of Liberal lunacy with the replies you will no doubt receive to this thread. That being said, its kind of an old story. Why bring it up again?

[Dougie Brootal]

im gonna go ahead and agree with earthbrown (:surrender::help:) cuz i think thats ridiculous too. now we cant dress up as black celebrities on halloween??? hows anyone gonna guess i barack obama if i just show up to a halloween party in a suit?!?!

[foodcourtdruide]

I know you'll call me a liberal lunatic simply because I may disagree with you, however..

I don't think the black face costume is considered offensive in a literal sense, however I think it's deemed offensive because of the symbolism behind them regarding minstrel shows that were popular circa 1800/1900. For a few decades minstrel shows were one of the most popular forms of American entertianment and they are so awful and racist it's difficult to comprehend.

Now I know what you will say... "this was 150 years ago, black people need to get over it!"

I don't think anyone needs to "get over" anything because a person who has no idea about their experience has decided they should, however I think the act of being "offended" gives those images and symbols power. That's why false-outrage is so damaging to our society.

The kid should have explained that he wasn't dressing up as a black person, but merely as a puppy killer. You gotta trick the ultra-libs into being offended by the dog murdering and they wont know what to do.

http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:YeCSHEw_G9ulGM:http://www.welcometotheasylum.com/Cooper/id341_files/blackface.jpg

Really ?!

OK, a few things...

Was the kid ACTUALLY in "blackface?" "Blackface" is the pic TeeBone posted. Going out in actual "blackface" for Halloween is just begging for an ass-kicking.

Now, if he did something like what whatsisface Hammond did on SNl whenever he played Jesse Jackson, and just slapped on some bronzer and a wig, it is actually different. Sure, somebody somewhere would probably still complain, but that's not actual "blackface" as it is historical known and as it has an impact. There is a difference between atempting to dress up as a black celebrity or public figure ad then dressing up in blackface. If he actually went out in blackface and then claimed he was "Michael Vick," he's full of shit.

Either way, the reactions of the school sound way over the top, though that's based solely on EB's rant since he very kindly opted not to link us to any kind of reports about this incident and what's happened since, so he hasn't actually backed up any of what he's claimed.

[donnie_darko]

omg!!! letting more blacks in their college, LAWDS NOOOOOOOOOOO

if you think its easy to be a a-student in the ghetto i'd like to see half of you people who complain about this sort of shit go survive and thrive while living in the projects, seriously, go for it.

having seen first hand black students go into college and thrive in that environment i think its sad that people still debate the merit of these programs.

people kill me.

To me, that doesn't look like blackface as what the term actually means. I don't think it's the smartest choice, but it's ultimately just a dumb costume. He's got the uniform, the wig, the dogs...none of it looks like someone just trying to be a "shocking" dipshit with a whole race thing.

I completely agree, he probably wasn't trying to be racist, just wanted to have a topical costume. Poor choice by a dumb kid. The opposite happens too at schools.

http://i29.tinypic.com/2z4zazt.jpg

I really think the average student doesn't see the awful part of the history of blackface because they grew up a couple generations removed from it.

Nah. I think it's the opposite and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone that didn't know that this...

http://www.welcometotheasylum.com/Cooper/id341_files/blackface.jpg

...is seriously bad news. But like I said, I think there is a difference between going for something like that and just parodying a public figure that happens to be black. To me, "blackface" is mocking or attacking or making fun of someone BECAUSE of their blackness, whereas this kid seems to be making fun of Vick being someone famous busted for dog fighting.

On a somewhat related sidenote, when did Halloween become this magically liberating night where everyone was free to be the biggest and most offensive asshole or dipshit possible? Just looking around for pics of this incident and seeing people's comments, you'd think Halloween suddenly gave anyone free reign to do whatever they wanted and nobody was allowed to naysay or get pissed off. It's indicative of the juvenile mentality in this country where people are "growing up" later and later, if at all.

Oh, and I'm "against" whiteface simply becase it is fucking TERRIFYING.

[TeeBone]

The Pin is correct....

Al Jolson - Blackface
Kid in bad Halloween costume - Fuckface

[ADF]

The thing about blackface is that if you're just walking down the street, people don't know if you're being racist or just wearing a costume for comedic effect. In the SNL skit Mojo mentioned, it's clear from the context that Jesse Jackson is the individual being ridiculed and not black people in general. If you're some schlub walking around during Halloween night, how is anyone supposed to know your "artistic" intent? It's a bad idea.

[foodcourtdruide]

lol that made me laugh out loud, thank you.

[earthbrown]

Again, dressing as a specific person might not be racist.

Dressing as a stereotype would be, although may also be funny.


The articles are googleable, but it is HONEST TRUTH that my brother has been dragged into meetings and forums because of this.

Last one was Wednesday(this prompted my post), they even made an issue of a radio brodcast of a girls basketball game, in which the commentators kept referring to one of the 2 african americans on the team as "Athletic".....the two african americans in the discussion said that because of the girls name it was obvious that they were refering to a black girl when calling her athletic.

My brother who is MUCH more liberal than myself, mildly countered the complaint, by saying, "well she is the most athletic on the team"....

I would not be able to sit in on such insanity, I am trying to get him to get me a copy of the video they made them watch.

I think you're right. But at least Michelle Obama agrees with you too. Her thesis at Princeton was about being black in a liberal school, but still having white liberal professors and faculty treating her with pity as if she was beneath them.

But then again, it's Princeton. They think everyone is beneath them.

You make great points. I agree with just about everything in your post. However, I do have a problem with the school giving black students something for free just because he's black. Than charging a white student a dump truck full of money for the same thing just because he's not black..Fundamentally & humanaterily it's wrong.. It honestly makes me absolutly livid to imagine that in this day & age not allowing everyone an equal chance at every single thing can still be instituted as policy on campus...The guilty conscience of these monumental morons is causing a lot of resentment on the honkey homefront..They're not liberals they're assholes.. Liberals want shit to NOT be based on the color of our skin..We have come to far in this cunt-tree to allow this horse shit to be on going.. The whole thing makes me wanna KILL WHITEY !
PS Sorry for the rant, but I'm heated.This topic and others like it always makes my blood boil..

The pendulum has indead swung hard in these matters. What was a good plan 40- 50 years ago has become a joke in modern times. including lowering admission standards and passing standards in the schools.

Let a black person in because of a "Program" and its fine, but if you went up to the same kid and told him "Hey you wanna come be a TOKEN in this school?" and it would be racist.

That being said, I have to attend diversity training at my job on Monday. My company lost a few Equal Opportunity lawsuit last year, so I need training. I'm hispanic mixed and get along with EVERYONE at my job...yeah I need training.

Liberals invented "affirmative action"....

Some liberals act more racist imho, by coddling and feeling sorry for the "minorities", basically thinking that they cant help themselves and making excuses for them.

Actually I am paritally right....Nixon started the ball rolling on affirmative action, while he was a Republican, he was liberal in many of his policies.

Hitler was a liberal, as he was a socialist. He wanted people to rely on their GOVT for EVERYTHING...if it was not for all the waring and jew killing he probably would have went down as a great socialist leader, fuck he motivated allot of people.

Hitler was a fascist that hid under the guise of National Socialism. Calling Hitler liberal is so fucking bizarre that I can't even comprehend it. I agree with Crispy, it sounds like something Limbaugh or Hannity would spew out during one of their hate speeches.

Also, most American liberals don't want a socialist society. I really think you've jumped off the deep end with the above post.

[TheMojoPin]

Look, affirmative action, like anything, can be misused, but for the most part, it serves a necessity. Residential segregation is still very real in this country, and it leads to trapping too much of the black population in cycles of poverty and low education. Affirmative action, for the most part, helps people break that cycle. Most of the people that benefit from it are "less skilled" because they only had access to the worst possible schools and economic environments. It's not like AA is used blindly and they just pick people at random.

The ironic thing, the AA quotas are now being used to strengthen segregation. Institutions and communities are now actually using met quota levels as an excuse to no longer admit certain minority students/residents/workers/etc..

That would be racist, unless it was a specific person and the costume was meant to pay homage. BUT IT WOULD BE YOUR RIGHT to do as you pleased!!! This is america, you can run down the street yelling racial slurs, unfortunatly some would decide to cause you harm, but you would be in the right.

You're completely wrong. "Freedom of speech" refers to your right for public discourse without the government stepping in. It does not give anyone the right to say whatever they want to whoever they want whenever they want. It's not a right to be a jackass or a moron. It's a cliche, but you don't hae the right to yell "FIRE" in a crowded theater. You don't have any kind of "right" to do what you just talked about, and God help you if you were actually serious. That is some serious intellectual impairment right there.

Socialized medicine, welfare, ssi, food stamps, wic, etc etc etc....all socialist programs.

Hitler came to power using a socialist base, public works projects, rebuilding the infrastructure....then he went wacko and started for world domination, even in that he used a form of extreme socialism.

All the powers that be want to perpetuate reliance on government in order to secure their place at the top, thats why we need term limits, because people are stupid and keep voting for the same swine over and over and over...there is no change and there will not be change, McCain will win the whitehouse and maintain the status quo.

Listen to me very carefully...NAZI GERMANY WAS A FASCIST DICTATORSHIP. Fascism is not socialism. If you persist on saying that it or the Nazis were socialists, you're pushing an incrediby stupid argument. The closest thing you can use to "prove" that is their use of the term "National Socialism," though they did not consider themselves socialists in the narrow mold you're trying to present them as, nor was it reflective of them displaying a primarily socialist agenda. They were fascists. Any scholar and historian around the world who isn't a moron recognizes that the Nazis were clearly fascists. Trying to argue that they weren't fascists is beyond absurd.

Many conservatives accuse Hitler of being a leftist, on the grounds that his party was named "National Socialist." But socialism requires worker ownership and control of the means of production. In Nazi Germany, private capitalist individuals owned the means of production, and they in turn were frequently controlled by the Nazi party and state. True socialism does not advocate such economic dictatorship -- it can only be democratic. Hitler's other political beliefs place him almost always on the far right. He advocated racism over racial tolerance, eugenics over freedom of reproduction, merit over equality, competition over cooperation, power politics and militarism over pacifism, dictatorship over democracy, capitalism over Marxism, realism over idealism, nationalism over internationalism, exclusiveness over inclusiveness, common sense over theory or science, pragmatism over principle, and even held friendly relations with the Church, even though he was an atheist. (http://www.huppi.com/kangaroo/L-hitler.htm)

Hitler and the Nazis' policies actually put them to the extreme, crazy far Right end of the political spectrum. I'm not saying that as a "an attack on conservatives"...the Nazis are so far off the charts and such a historical anomaly that any efforts to compare them to anything since is a complete fallacy. They are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to the Right...nobody else even comes close.

You'd be hard pressed to find a country anywhere in the world that doesn't have at least some socialist policies/programs in place. Wise up...aspects of America have always been and always will be socialist. Socialism is an incredibly broad set of theories. Stop talking like socialism is automatically and only some kind of horrible or bad thing.

[suggums]

[Coach]

Umm..black face as a Minstrel, which is a mockery of blacks.= No good
Wearing a costume and darkening your face so it fits. =good
Query...if you are Asian and land the part of Sandy in Grease and they whiten your face..is that bad?...
If you are not Asian and you land the part of the King in the King and I, is it wrong to wear yellowing makeup and have your eyes look Asian?
IMO: unless it is overtly racist...yank it..
otherwise step back...emulation is acceptance. Mockery is racism.

You just want to say nazi's were socialist to knock socialism. Extreme socialism is communism, not fascism. As Mojo said, you find socialist aspects in almost all forms of government. You are just using hyperboles to help your argument.

How does Obama or Clinton change the status quo? A few more social programs may be adopted, but there isn't going to be extreme change no matter who gets elected. If you don't listen to right-wing talk radio, then you should start a right-wing talk radio show, because you have the whole "THE SKY WILL FALL IF THE LIBERALS ARE ELECTED" gimmick down.

Odds are if these are plays, they wouldn't bother attempting such things. Not even because of any "offensive" issue, but because it would simply be incredibly distracting to the audience, and you want them focusing on the performances, not something as incidental as makeup.

And besides, no Asian person is actually "yellow-skinned."
