Blackface: A cultural history of a racist art form
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2024
- With the recent controversy over Megyn Kelley's remarks in which she questioned why wearing blackface on Halloween was offensive, "Sunday Morning" contributor and WCBS anchor Maurice DuBois looks at the long and complex history of white (and even black) performers painting their faces black. For more than 100 years, minstrel shows were a popular form of entertainment on stage and film, reducing an entire race of people to stereotypes. DuBois speaks with Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Margo Jefferson, and with Eric Lott, cultural historian and professor at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, about the complicated history of a racist theatrical form.

it’s not just offensive, it’s creepy af
Tiny Mouse no… it’s pretty offensive too
Kyra Randle they said not JUST offensive
@@thefalcon3230 are u deaf look at the video
@JohnTheEditorGuy 1407 I don't think it's offensive.

Everyone wants to be black till white supremacist shows up
DIVINES LEGACY not true you see Nina W who is actually a white woman but then changed her breast to black because she felt like she was black
Even as a small child, I realized that this was rude, disrespectful, repulsive and disgusting when I saw an old movie on television. It was sickening and always will be!
Get over it

I mean I agree with u
Imagine how insane you have to be, to want to dress up as a caricature of the people you “hate.” While off stage, still berating them, beating them, MURDERING them like????? Insane!
right and then u got these racists in the comments defending them
🤷🏾♂️ it’s the American way 🇺🇸
@@gmac9133 We have to get out of here
But now you have conservatives blacks down playing this type of behavior. The RUclips podcast are full of them
Probably more complicated than that, right? Just like the black actors doing it, the white actors have expectations they have to meet (same as today really, even RUclipsrs). It really reflects upon the people as a whole though, which are the machine that drives what we think is popular or trending. So the actors may or may not have hated black people, but it lets you know where society as a bigger whole was at during those times to even begin to think that it's okay. More so, similar to the Nazis, the white people in power were creating a system to convince people that black people are a certain way (was even intended to make black people also think that about their own people). Nazis used their propaganda machine to do the same and even if you weren't a German against Jewish people, it created a societal normal that desensitized the masses toward the horrific things they were doing and going to do; even if you disagreed, your voice was diminished by the voice of society so you didn't speak/act out against it. Sort of like when people say "boys will be boys," it completely dismisses the behavior and intent by implying that its simply something normal that one should accept. However, the actors and such today, it shows you where society is at now. They did what they did, and instead of society accepting it, they dealt with it instead. Personally, I learned a lot from this video about it and didn't really know the history to it at all. I wasn't the best student in the world, but I'm positive they never taught us this in school here when growing up. Anyways, as you said, it's all insane really. I'm glad that I was born into a generation that we can all sit and reflect on it together though. Wasn't that long ago where that wasn't possible. Sometimes it's hard to see/hear through all the noise from the previous generations that are still alive, but the newer generations are more united together with each other than any of the previous generations have ever seen. Only a matter of time now. Probably even the reason why the Gov been trying to divide us a lot more lately; they don't want us working together.
I can’t believe people say “This is not racist. It’s an art form” smh 🤦♀️
Idk what to say, that guys who dress like nwa or the man who is Bob Marley doesn't look racist at all.Not blackface did that videos from 100 years ago racists, things they said was racist
For example Hitler was vegan so that means people who are vegans are like Hitler?
Ikr! The year that they used that make up it was racist!!

STFU $PIC!
This really needs to be taught in school, so many kids today see being black as a 'cool' or 'edgy' thing, so they try to copy us. But, they don't want to 'copy' the experience, or remember the history behind it.
That's because black culture glorifies young black men who rap about committing crimes.
White children have been forced to integrate and are confused by that glorification,they try to emulate the trends they see in black culture and it leads them down the path to prison.
When the opposite happens and a black child acts like he had some home training it can actually turn out well.
Same with drag queens, right ?
Social Engineering:
1. Charles Darwin's: 'Theory of Evolution' is international Racism/White Supremacy brainwashing program (the Theory of Evolution is a hoax).
2. Charles Darwin's books:
'On The Origin Of Species: By
Means Of Natural Selection
Or The Preservation Of The
Favored Races In The
Struggle For Life'
'Descent Of Man: And
Selection In Relation To Sex'
[These 2 books are the
Racism/White Supremacy
brainwashing training
manuals]
3. Charles Darwin claimed (through his books and Theory) that the "more evolved" Race must dominate, eradicate and replace the "lesser evolved" races according to "natural law"; Darwin says that "Evolution" is the so-called "natural law".
4. There is no evidence available (in the Life Sciences); No evidence to support Darwin's Theory of Evolution (simple creatures "turning into" complex creatures).
5. There is no evidence available (in the Life Sciences); No evidence to support Darwin's concept: "Survival of the Fittest" or "Only the strong survive".
[In the Life Sciences, we find that the "fit" and "unfit" may or may not survive; The "strong" and the "weak" may or may not survive.]
6. The primary element, and common thread (quiet as it's kept), in the "manifestos' of most of the Mass Shooters etc.; The common thread is: Darwin's Theory of Evolution (and its associated concepts).
[Hitler, Stalin, King Leopold, Mussolini, Francis Galton, Margaret Sanger etc. Were all fanatical Darwinists.]
7. The APA (American Psychological Association) apologized (October 29th, 2021) for establishing and promoting ideas based on the false concepts of Darwinism/Eugenics/Racism/White Supremacy.

debbieomi That’s very sad to hear. Have you ever seen these back in the days?
I find it interesting to learn about and also the old racist cartoons as well but maybe I just have a VERY strange perception of what “interesting” is.... I love learning about serial killers and watching horror movies at like 3 am and get annoyed when they’re not as creepy as I expected them to be
Yo mom

No, it's comical.
History needs to be taught in American schools properly.
I mean it depends on the school and teacher you have, I'm currently attending a school that takes history very seriously and has gone very deep into it. But sadly some schools and states don't take history seriously and barely teach ot or go that deep into it. This is something that happens in alot of other countries not just America sadly.
Sydney W yes it does
i’ve only learned about segregation, Abraham Lincoln, MLK, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and that’s it... African-American History should be taught in every grade
I agree 100%
Yep. I didn’t learn about blackface til college. Horrible
And people still do black face till this day smh
What's wrong with that today??? This was wrong and happened so long ago why new generations have to to pay for something they didn't do? That's retarted!
@@samramos2436 just because we're in a totally different year doesn't make it any less offensive. blackface was the reality of racism in mocking African-Americans and it still means the exact same thing that it did back then in the late 1900s, yet people continue to do it anyway in the present time. racism overall with Mexicans, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, Hawaiians and African-Americans is still a huge issue in the U.S. today - haven't you looked around?
Sam Ramos It is still happening today all the time.

Why is he REASON for doing it today if its offensive to black people?
That last comment she makes is so under appreciated. This is history, when it is suppressed and censored it only comes back. All these videos should be on RUclips for everyone to see how far we have come!
At this point, it's not even just about hate, It's literally pure obsession. 💀 Is this where the term "you become something you hate" came from? 🤢

Excuse you? You act like no black has ever looked white, you better be just as upset that 2 black guys made a movie looking like white chicks. Or are you climbing aboard that double standard band wagon ? ruclips.net/video/aeVkbNka9HM/видео.html
Obviously blackface alone is offensive with its exaggerated features and using literally black makeup but I think the real aspect of it that offends a lot more (to me, at least) is the manner in which the White person takes it upon themselves to "act like a Black person." Or at least act like how they think a Black person behaves which usually amounts to a bunch of stereotypes that are dehumanizing.
I agree😢🥲
I don't think old blackface acts ever portrayed robberies or gang shootings or r@ping lol, so obviously they were avoiding plenty of stereotypes....
@@jjgeoffphhcinkkllee Those are broad actions you're referring to. Stereotypes aren't limited to just that kind of stuff. There are stereotypes of traits, expectations, behavior, inflection, ability, and more. If I were to identify a specific stereotype to correspond to that list, I'd say the exaggerated lips are a trait, then there are low expectations for success that people impose on all Blacks, as well as impulsive behavior, a "ghetto" inflection on speech, and the alleged inability to evolve which gives people the green light to throw at them the very dehumanizing and hurtful comparison to monkeys and chimps.
@@rickramos1292 No one cares about that when they are being shot or stabbed lol

“art form”???? more like horrifying practice
Evelyn White no evelyn it’s not a meme, i don’t think you know what memes are
WHITEFACE is also called an artform, even though it’s offensive
Putting black make up on is not racist. It’s the belief that it is portrayed to make black people seem like “lesser people” that’s racist.

I don't understand why is it okay for a black man to dress up as a white person but it's racist if it's the other way around?
Why were they so obsessed with us? I never understood?
No they're mocking black people
Still obsessed though. That took time and effort to pull off. You had to really study black people. So OBSESSED is an appropriate word!

This is how I know you don't know anything else pass your own bubble you're not thinking of the Native Americans as they need to be defended as well you're thinking of it as well so what about other people meaning you want to counteract the fact that black people are always calling attention to things that are wrong now with that being said if you are so upset that this happens to Native Americans then you need to do something about it black people call attention to things everybody else follows suit yeah we're made out to be the bad guys when we won't sit here and sit down and take anything from anybody. so from now on the next time you come up with or what about the Irish and what about the Native American and what about the Asians you better remember something at this point if you're not going to call attention to the proper don't get on somebody else's post or story trying to counteract that we won't settle for less. I say this because I know plenty of people and pages that speak out for Native Americans you just aren't one of those people obviously

Seeing Judy Garland, Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire in Black face honestly just makes me so sad.
All three are beloved and iconic performers of the 20th century who influenced many. Who where also among the many that used this racist mockery in performances because they where part of a time where it was considered hilarious and entertaining.

@R Lopez actually no. The only difference is that the free money whites get is labeled as subsidies or grants, while for minorities it's called welfare. The $12 billion Trump is handing farmers is called 'aid. The $6 billions he's giving to people addicted to opioids is called relief. 76% of Medicare recipients are white. In Alaska, which is almost exclusively white, every citizen gets a paycheck each year from the government. Let's not mention in the 30s and 40s the millions of homes and land the government handed out almost exclusively to white people by backing their loans. These are all facts you can look up. The vast majority recipient of government money are white people, who then look down on anyone else who receives any help. Why don't you tell them to stop looking for hellp from the man

ADVICE TO ANY PARENT WHO HAS CHILDREN WHO WANT TO DRESS UP AS BLACK HISTORICAL FIGURES FOR ANY REASON:
If you're child wants to be a black historical figure for Halloween, School, what ever reason but their not black then they can just don't make them wear black face, for p example: When I was in third grade, we had a activity to tribute for people like George Washington, Abarham Linkin, Matin Luther King Jr, ext. I wanted to be Harriet Tubman but I'm a white girl and she's black... Not a problem, I was a *white* Harriett Tubman and did *not* use blackface, my mom was scared but then I told my mixed teacher who I was (she's mixed between black and white) and she was delighted! She even told me that I was her favorite since Tubman was her hero!
In short, don't use blackface. Your child can just be a different race version of the black person they're trying to be.

@@areyes3489 what?
Isn't painting your face considered "blackface" only when done in an exaggerated form that mocks black people? Typically with the addition of some silly performance? I fail to see how the makeup would fit into this if done respectfully, in cosplay, for example. Dunno, maybe I'm just purist when it comes to cosplay, and like it to be as close to the portrayed character as possible. ^^'
The Judy Garland one is insanely creepy, the way she moves and how everyone was behind her felt like a horror movie
The Meme Boi omg YES! her voice was so unique that when you heard it you automatically knew who it was, & for me to know she did it is really shocking..

Not really not everything is about race that’s just a fact
I'm white but ever since I was young blackface has terrified me. I don't fear clowns, or tribal makeup or drag, or any other extreme makeup but I've always hated this even before I knew it was racist.

In the movie white chicks black men dressed as white women it’s just comedy
Isaiah Young different but same
Isaiah Young interesting to see if that could be used the other way around....
Dv Vecchio that’s different because they were using there black skin and using the white skin as disguise if you watched the movie you would know
I wish i could bump into one of them today.

@C Mee WTF IS YOU TALKING ABOUT
@C Mee Ok Mr.Racist, whatever you say.
@C Mee I bet you're the same type who freaks out and demand you face oppression because people make silly joke about us whities. But you think this sort of thing is okay. Just go away.
@C Mee The only reason it's still talked about is because it still happens. If people didn't wear blackface now, there would be no need to talk about it.
@C Mee an Indiana council member dressed in blackface last halloween, a parent dressed their children in blackface, afro wigs, dashikis, and blm gear for Purim.
“Any form of history that gets suppressed or repressed or erased out, it comes back to haunt.” Very important words for 2020.
I hope it's true
Exactly
Like the fact the vast majority of slaves were sold by black Africans; that slavery was about economy not race; the fact democrats was the party of slavery and committed acts of racism and still does to this day yet most black ppl and ignorant liberals Only vote democrat; the fact there are currently more slaves in Africa today than all of US history; the fact that in history when society stops being moral then it's nation crumbles yet democrats (the party of slavery, racism) is the party of resisting proper moral behavior and personal responsibility...

It honestly wouldn't be so bad if they were doing it in a positive light but everytime they do it they are mocking us. Painting your face white use to symbolize beauty. Wish black face had at least one positive use
perhaps you are also mad at us for taking over rock music after Hendrix' death

@Aaliyah Lyte-Fountain like people who don't think black people are superior and that every white envies them?
Chappie no one said that. We’re just saying how people are like “black people steal” and this and that and all that racist crap. But, we were brought over here from Africa from you guys, against our will. We had a choice to either come or die. And somehow WE are the bad guys when we protest against racism? No. No one said anything about black people being more superior than whites. No one said that. We are all equal. And it’s people like you that start fights. We are angry because even with all the facts saying that this is terrible, people still have the nerve to say “Well, black people steal more than whites” or “Black people complain too much” or “This isn’t a big deal”. That’s why we’re angry. Thank you, and God Bless.
How is this not equal to what drag queens do. Sometimes it feels like we are being mocked today by men.
Trans is just woman-face
I used to be a racist.. I’m ashamed of that. But this just pisses me off so much because I can’t possibly imagine what it’s like to make others feel like they are in charge and on top of the world because that’s what THEY think is right! How would we all like it if the same treatment was given to us. I understand that tragedy strikes all and knows no color or possession. At the end of the day we all live on the same rock, have the same blood, and the same color of bone. Each and every person is blessed with creativity. I appreciate that I have learned history and changed my outlooks on life because this is truly heartbreaking when you think about all that was never mentioned or documented.. much love and respect and I’m sorry..

True
I guess if you’re very technical about it, then it’s some what art, but that doesn’t make it any less racist and disgusting
What about all the degrading stereotypes of WHITES routinely coming out of the CONTEMPORARY MAINSTREAM mass media ( Hollywood, television, and so forth )? .. . like "dumb blonde", suburbanite, frat boy, and "hillbilly", which all these militant leftist "politically correct" SJW "liberal" types never seem to get so indignant about and raise such a clamor over?
If you’re a liberal or Democrat it’s 👌 somehow they get a free pass
it is art
It’s the same as people taping the side of their eyes to their face to look Asian and saying Ching Chong and making fun of their culture.
Woman-Face is just as offensive Black-Face. Trans is the modern Minstrel Show.
The fact of the matter is, blackface is offensive. However, it shouldn't be swept under the rug and forgotten. Like many controversial topics of the past, it should be discussed and studied so as to fully understand where people's minds once were, and then judged appropriately and accordingly on how far we've come as a society.
Wrong snowflake. the only way to truly heal as a nation and bring all Races together is to stop ripping off the scabs of old wounds and teaching people about racism. you can't have your cake and eat it too. You can't continuously complain about racism and teach young kids about "evil white people" and then expect the races to come together and heal. you are only perpetuating Division and anger. I honestly don't believe anyone wants to solve racism. I think people just want to have something to b**** and complain about.

Aren't cartoons usually inaccurate contortions of humans? Do they make you sick to your stomach as well? Do you consider them blasphemy as well? Probably not. You're probably just believing the idea that putting on a costume equates one to being racist, which if it did and you're black, then don't dye your hair blonde, because you'd be racist against whites just for altering your appearance!
I don't really see why it's such a terrible thing. Seems to me too many people just WANT everything to be a horrible racist issue.
You can make a big deal out of literally anything, even when its nothing really all that bad.
Much ado about nothing.
It clearly was racist. Painting their skin dark to mimic black people, copying their accents, using un-true stereotypes, and the white lips tat were incredibly large? Racism, nothing about it is funny.
Here in the UK there used to be a program on TV in the 1960s called the black and white minstrels show. It was all white men dressed in black makeup dancing and singing. Never thought much about it as I was a child but I never liked it. But my mom loved it. But I don't think she gave it much thought. It was just the singing and dancing she liked. But the sixties was a different world back then.
Why are people being so NASTY in the comments?!
People just like to be racist and/or insult others

@Joe it’s history. So you’re saying a big part of American entertainment deeply imbedded into our history shouldn’t be taught?
you didnt have to include the sjw part lmao. it's insane that calling out any form of discrimination means you're an sjw now.
What about the movie white chicks
Trust me your not a sjw its common senses
I'm 57 years old and I've never been to a party, or event, or witnessed anyone wearing black face. I don't think it's an overriding issue or problem in today's society.
As an Italian, grown up in a place where we were living mocking each other, racism is a difficult idea to fully grasp. If I were black, I will be more inclined to see this things (I am talking about blackface, no other serious issues) as dismissive silly sh… Or, perhaps, I would stage with my face painting completely white.
Thank you for those who care enough to recognize this is wrong.
