If blackface is so offensive to black people, then why do some of them wear inappropriate shades of lipstick?
There's a black girl in my class. I have nothing against her other than the fact that the way she did her make up today resembles blackface. She is involved in the fashion industry and should know how to select a shade of lipstick. Instead of choosing a sexy burgundy, she chose neon pink. I doubt society would tolerate a white person choosing black foundation.
Every day white people like me are reminded of our cultural guilt and dept to society. I don't think that she should rub this in my face by actually imitating the exact image that she claims that my ancestors wrongly projected onto her. Should I tell her how offended I am?

Are you going to stop wearing black t shirts and eating chocolate? Dark chocolate too?
Should she stay away from grey lipstick?
You don't hate those objects
Those objects are food you eat and taste good
And feel good wearing on your body

Because you think lips = face. It doesn't.
Because you think a foundation is lipstick. It isn't.
Because you think neon pink people exist. They don't.
Source(s): Wear black lipstick or black mascara. No one who enjoys sanity cares. Oh wait. Black mascara = black face. Maybelline is now racist! Derp. - Qwerty™Lv 75 years ago
Your question makes just about as much sense as Donald Trump running for president.
