I saw a black and white performance of blackface on youtube, I think in the context of looking it up for a college course. I don’t really understand the concept or why it’s supposed to be funny. In the performance, the two white actors painted their faces as they performed, and when they were done painting themselves, they didn’t look like black guys. Before I saw this clip, I thought that blackface existed becasue black people weren’t allowed on stage, like how Shakespearean plays had young boys play the female roles because they weren’t allowed to include women.

I only fly the original flag that we had before the rainbow one, although every crew had their own version.
