Yeah, the article on Gawker doesn’t use the term blackface at all, but the one on Jezebel does. Clickity click click....

Unless you were there, then you can’t say with 100% validity that someone was in black face.

The burden of proof is on the accusers, and at this point they have no evidence to support their claim. If there is, then these kids deserve to be shamed as racists, but until then, let’s put the pitchforks down.

You stupid stupid fucks. There is no blackface shown. They painted goatees on their face. Ya know, FACIAL HAIR that all races can have!!! And they dressed up as gold diggers with a smidge of dirt on their face. Come on let’s all wear black in solidarity because we are fucking sheep and really just want attention and…

No, and it’s ironic, because the people implying such things as being racist are being racist themselves since THEY are the ones utilizing a stereotype to accuse racism. Very, very ironic. If a girl dresses up like plastic queen Kardashian, but you accuse her of dressing up like a black woman, then you’re being racist.

The thing is based on all the pictures, I think that’s exactly what they did. Silly Kanye portrayals without any black face.

If you can’t conclusively say its blackface it probably isn’t.

BUT THEN I CAN’T REVEL IN OUTRAGE

You can’t really get mad about “colored” if “people of color” is the new hot phrase of justice.

But white people go to UCLA and someone definitely COULD HAVE dressed up as something totally offensive at the Kanye Western party! The fact that no one did is PROOF THAT WHITE RACISM IS DESTROYING BLACK AND BROWN BODIES!

Probably 2014 I guess? Since no one at this party was in black face?

Seems like they did learn? No one is in blackface.

The black face, when those photos come out, is certainly racist. None of the other photos shown, however, are.

Blackface, now, apparently. Seriously, this is a joke. I haven’t seen one picture of a person in blackface. But, yea, destroy these kids online. After all Jezebel is know for responsible journalism.

I think you are 100% correct. it is not offensive in anyway.

Those wacky kids just can’t hide their love of puns.

To be fair, most sorority girls tan themselves super dark anyway....

how is this racist? murricans are funny <3

I don’t see any blackface. Right now all this is based on hearsay which contradicts the available photo evidence. So, hmm.

What ‘consequences’ - specifically - are you suggesting? You know, consequences for when a teenager wears a white tanktop, sagged gray sweatpants, and draws on a goatee. Are we talking about expulsion? Jailtime? Public shaming?

I’m slightly confused by the picture shown as well. If they used bronzer to make their skin darker that’s obviously racist and gross but I’m not convinced that those girls aren’t just overly tan because they live in LA and think it looks good.
