@sarahjeong i'd be interested in reading history of that phenomenon. blackface minstrelsy in the u.s. isnt talked about much
idk why virulent racism goes hand-in-hand with a parodic assumption of that racial identity. Makes no sense to me but I guess it’s a thing.

@mikedelic oh i took a class that was pretty much “here’s another thing about blackface today” and it was the most soul-crushing class -
@mikedelic idk about earliest instance of blackface, but lots of documentation of representation of native people -
@mikedelic like as long as they are perceived as a real threat, they’re portrayed like monsters -
@mikedelic as the genocide gets worse, reservations are created, etc., you see the “in-touch-with-nature” idealistic images -
@mikedelic that was the saddest part, pinpointing when white people stopped feeling scared, through the history of advertisements
