Why isn’t he resigning? He’s clearly a racist."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

The most common response here is everyone is willing to forgive and forget: he’s awfully handsome after all, and it was twenty years ago, so no harm no foul.Originally posted by SCcoug View Post
Now of course, if it was revealed that a conservative political leader, or worse Donald Trump acted similarly, well then, that would be beyond reprehensible.
Apparently, the images were first sent to Canadian news outlets. When the liberal news outlets did not report on them under the excuse they had to be thoroughly vetted first, the images were sent to Time. The hypocrisy is unfathomable.Comment

I love how the media has decided to call Trudeau's version "brownface" as if that is somehow less offensive than blackface.Originally posted by SCcoug View PostLast edited by Donuthole; 09-19-2019, 03:39 PM.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

‘This thing is a wildfire’: Trudeau apologizes again as campaign reels from racist makeup revelations
I tend to agree. People do stupid stuff in high school and college, and in this case, society has changed.Liberal lawmakers stood by Trudeau. Greg Fergus, vice chairman of the Canada-Africa Parliamentary Association and a Liberal member from Quebec, said he had spoken with the prime minister and accepted his apology.
“If it happened last week, it would shock me to the core,” Fergus told reporters in Ottawa. “But things that happened 20 years ago? Different time.”
Omar Yar Khan, who has served as a strategist for the Liberals, described cycling through several emotions when he saw the images: anger, frustration, regret. He said that the *images suggest “a lack of judgment” but that he didn’t think Trudeau had “any ill intent.”
Ha, if only the border hadn't been so porous, Canada could have remained free of U.S.-style racism.Blackface has a long history in Canada and remained a common form of entertainment in schools, churches and community groups well into the 1970s. The composer of “O Canada,” the national anthem, Calixa Lavallée, spent much of his early career performing in blackface in minstrel troupes in Canada and the United States.
American minstrels traveled often to Canada, and homegrown troupes also sprung up. Philip S.S. Howard, a professor at McGill University in Montreal, wrote in a 2017 paper that this reveals “the Canada-U.S. border to be, in fact, quite porous to U.S.-style racism.”

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I’m glad that we have now set the standard that black face is okay as long as it was over 10 years ago and you apologize, even if it happened multiple times."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

These old pictures don't do much for me.
His boneheaded costume choices on his visit to India are much worse in my opinion as they happened while he was Prime Minister and show his absolute lack of tact.
