Please provide me with links/info that shows the deep historical imprint of whiteface on today's media and society at large.
I bet you can't. The reason why blackface is offensive is the H-I-S-T-O-R-Y.
And WHITEface does NOT SHARE THAT HISTORY.
Your situation is hypothetical. The one at Tennessee is real. So was the one at Auburn. Let's not play apples and oranges.
ktsnake, I actually agree with your thoughts about this topic. However, to assume that MOST blacks are uaware of the history of blackface is wrong. Anyway, I think the ramifications are what really matters and I don't think ANYONE misunderstands that.
