    Are you referring to "blackface?" The entire world now knows that it's racist to wear blackface. When was the last time you saw anyone do this in person, or even in the news?

    Yes, of course it's racist and people shouldn't do it, but thankfully it's very rare nowadays and almost universally considered in bad taste.
