So have any black guys ever put on white face? I personally know no one who’s done either.

What a surprised that so many Republicans are racists ?

Why would anyone give a crap if a white person impersonates a black person? Unless there is some derogatory meaning, get a life powder puffs!!

Virginia is a hot mess. Thankfully, Amazon is moving in and bringing diversity with it.

What's he done since?

RACISTS, the entire Dem Party for over 200 years

But this is ok from Bill Clinton

This just isn't the same as dressing like Al Jolson or Mammy and it shouldn't be treated as such.

Wow the whole damn state is racist 🤦🏾‍♂️

Remember folks, the southern Democrats created the KKK after being mad they lost the civil war to the northern Republicans. Why is this shocking?

It is Best to Confess before someone expose your past! Those cant do, teach! Those can change their belief imposed on others!

I thought Republicans were racist ones Isn’t that what the media jas been telling everybody 😂

80’s was a very colorful time people back then loved to impersonate their favorite artist, celebrities etc.

Why? Black people just wear the costume...we don't lighten our skin

No wonder democrat women in Congress dressed in KKK outfits yesterday.

they all coming out now showing their true colors the party that founded the kkk the democrats.

The KKK was created by Democrats, what do you expect?

Time for Kimmel to disappear

One of the things that's been bothering me about the whole blackface thing is that until very recently, it wasn't even on the radar of inappropriateness. It's almost as if we're criticizing people decades ago for something that only recently has been considered taboo

This is a good tweet. It provides context of admission.

A black rapper in 1980? 🤔

Epidemic

The democrats created the KKK, loved segregation & opposed the civil/voting rights acts. Somethings just never change!

These idiots!

virginia is a hot bed for racism ….regardless of party …..
