Blackface isn’t just about the racism in America’s past. It’s also about the racism in America’s present.

Blackface has been a constant in American culture going all the way back to the country's founding. It's one of those inconvenient facts of U.S. history: a white supremacist cultural building block.
Blackface corresponds with the rise of Jim Crow segregation and with spectacle lynchings. And the popularity of blackface, like, continued well into the 20th century.

They had some SNL skits on 'blackface' last night. It was funny.
