You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!

What a dickhead...
As an actual Virginian, and a citizen of the great city of Richmond, all I have to say to you scumbag outsiders is....

Its true. It’s all loving true. It’s a nothingburger to us because it doesn’t surprise us one bit.

I will say this one thing in defense of Northram... You guys have no idea of the pure evil that this guy is holding back. Our Commonwealth is the home of Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, plantations-as-tourist-sites, Liberty University, and more loving rebel flags than a NRA sponsored NASCAR race. we still have monster trucks.

Hell, I read a family genealogy that spoke fondly of my ancestors’ slaves. “Look! It says right here we took them to a doctor! That’s not so terrible!” -my mom.

I love my home commonwealth but drat, we got problems.

My alabamian friends/in laws are staunchly saying this poo poo doesn't happen in the deep South and is strictly a coastal elitist thing to do blackface, which is pretty funny

KKK hoods are a different story I'm sure

I'm pretty sure there's been at least one or two blackface Halloween costume minor scandals, but it's true you don't see it much here. That said the Greek systems at both UA and Auburn are unbelievably racist in several other ways.

Holy poo poo it gets worse but apparently Whoopi dared him to do it

https://www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/dansons-racist-humor-appalls-crowd-at-roast

quote:

They cringed in disbelief during the opening monologue by actor Ted Danson, Whoopi's lover, who appeared in blackface and used the word "friend of the family" more than a dozen times during a series of jokes that drew smaller and smaller laughs, until finally the audience was groaning and Danson faltered as he tried to plow through his written material.

At one point he even ate watermelon.
...
Goldberg, seated next to Danson, laughed and smiled at the material. Speaking last, she defended her friend: "Let's get these words all out in the open. It took a whole lot of courage to come out in blackface in front of 3,000 people. I don't care if you didn't like it. I did."

Goldberg said in a statement Saturday that she knew what Danson and other speakers were planning and that "made the day particularly fun because these were people who love me.

It was while he was dating her, he wore it to like a roast of her or something. It was extremely hosed up and I believe she was complicit.

reading racist literature by elif batuman is a good essay about the play An Octoroon by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, which is really good and features blackface as a motif
