In essence, I don't think people (black/white) mind when the "____face" is done is a comedic fashion, pointing to example of SNL skits, such as Billy Crystal as Sammy Davis Jr., or Dave Chapelle etc.

When doning "racial makeup" (when I think of blackface, I think of the skin painted black with white, exagerated lips, eyes, etc.) there is a big different between playing a character vs. degrading a group of people - which is what "blackface" is. For those that are famailiar with it, along with the make-up there is a certain behavior, speak, and mannerism that go along with it.

I agree with her. I don't even see how people can be offended at this movie and those that are will be doing it in a "I can't do blackface, but you can do whiteface" kinda way.
