White Kid Goes Black Face To Portray MLK But Elementary School Isn't Having It!

White folks doin white folk shyt. Nothing new. Being oblivious as usual.

how is this racist? black people are pissing me the fukk off with their overly sensitive histrionics over shyt that's not even offensive.

shut the fukk up.

How the fukk is this NOT offensive? The only argument you can make is that a kid that young probably didn't grasp the ignorance of what he was doing, but his parents sure did... or should have.

you guys are more retarded than i though. i'm not punishing the kid, i'm punishing his parents for the action. this kid has PARENTS. his parents are teaching him what's offensive. and i'm pretty sure his parents know why that is offensive, that is, unless they live under a rock...

you guys are ridiculous, telling me to "smarten up" when it's you who's thinking is a very dense method. i don't expect this kid to know everything. what type of idiot would think that?

this is another case of oversensitive black america hustling backwards and being hypocritical

i agree he shoulda been taken out of school and he should be taught why it could be considered offensive...but to act like the child or the parents intentionally did it to offend black people when his entire project is about PRAISING MARTIN LUTHER KING JR is retarded

we cant make progress if we still have the same mindframe from the fukkin 1930s, maybe these are just some MODERN-MINDED white people who didnt see the harm in their son dressing up as MLK for a project about MLK...why everything gotta go back to slavery and segregation with you internet activist ass nikkas??

What should have happened was when the kid asked to paint his face the parents should have taken that as an opportunity to explain the context behind a white person PAINTING THEIR FACE to look like a black person. Maybe the parents didn't intend to be racist or offensive, they seem like they didn't, but that's not the point. What if he was doing a japanese figure and showed up with his eyes taped to the side?

lol at the parents response

we cant make progress if we still have the same mindframe from the fukkin 1930s, maybe these are just some progressive white people who didnt see the harm in their son dressing up as MLK for a project about MLK...why everything gotta go back to slavery and segregation with you internet activist ass nikkas??

no one's saying they did it intentionally. the point of the matter is they went with their own personal preference instead of recognizing, historically, that painting your face black is offensive. the matter isn't over their own desire, it's about what images are offensive to a ethnic group. please refer to my example i used before about the swastika. the kid could have did a report on colonel claus von stauffenberg and walked in the school with a swastika on his arm and it would have still been offensive even though stauffenberg was trying to assassinate hitler...

don't be so dense...

 

[charmander]

i already said they went about it in a bad way, but god damn these are some harmless friendly rednecks trying to show some based love to MLK cut em some slack brehs

 

[Mask and Da Glock]

Wow I just watched the rest, the women who said, "this wasn't about the woman who go got offended, this is a project!" and the parents response...nah. The kid was offensive, intentional or not, it's sad they're trying to make it seem like someone overreacted to black face. fukk the people in that video and now that I'm watching it closely this kid is looking more and more like a puppet for his parent's to try and make a statement.

Da fact dat da kid's parents didn't IMMEDIATELY put a fukkin hault to even THINKING about sendin dat lil mufukka outside da house wearin black face speaks volumes about how there is still a vast majority of white folks who have no clue on race relations...and frankly dont giva shyt TO care. I mean come da fukk on breh. Dat's a SERIOUS prollem.

And i dont know how any person of color can sit up here and talk about how black folks being hyper sensitive when we see blatant and FLAGRANT racism still goin on today...ON A DAILY BASIS. Sure we've come far from not having to worry bout public lynchings and sittin in seperate places but to say we should just let dis kinda shyt slide because it was "harmless" is just plain ignorant mah dood. I really dont believe you're dat naive to how shyt is out here. In fact it's almost like shyt has gotten worse since Obama got in office. Dese cacs are losin dey fukkin mind.

thats my point tho

why have a fit over unintentional, archaically outdated images that offended black folks generations ago when there's REAL, FLAGRANT AND BLATANT racism happening everyday??

when we get defensive over every little thing all it does is highlight these insecurities and lets real racists draw on them more and more

how you expect to combat racism in 2012 when you still tryna fight racism from 1865?

you know why? because it IS 2012 and people still don't understand racism from the 1800s. racism is racism, present, past, future, etc...

Blackface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

you shut the fukk up and read...

i'm black and i'm not offended. when black comedians do "white voice," are they being offensive and racist?

it goes both ways.

i'm sick of black people acting like idiots over bullshyt, when there's far more serious stuff for our community to address.

preach.

i almost understand why some cacs get upset at these shrieking blacks who get outraged at the most innocent shyt. it's annoying, because it makes people feel like you can't say shyt about black people without being accused of racism.

i dislike a lot of cacs as much as the next nikka, for obvious reasons, but this isn't one of them.

just another overreaction by blacks not thinking straight.

 

[kermit da hustla]

black people act like slavery made us a sacred cow.

we are not special.
