Japanese moonwalking champions

I’d say “education” wouldn’t be the term you wanna use to describe what Debito is doing. He’s disqualified himself on countless occasions through ignorant reasoning and perpetual nagging about almost anything that differs from what he had in his country, giving the perfect image of the foreigner unable to adapt.

everyone else in the west is really sensitive about it.

Some folks in the west seem to “get a kick out of seeing White folks imitate Blacks”.

I think it is not black face per se that is wrong but the intention and the context that imply condescending portrayal of a group of oppressed people that is wrong.
And if there is a practice in the west in which people put on brown paint to act out an ignorant condescending portrayal of a group of oppressed folks, that is what should be blamed and corrected.

People on the video are in no way making fun of black people;they all respect Michael Jackson.
(Notice also that the last guy paint their face lighter to impersonate Michael in his later years.)

That said, the first guy’s make-up might be crude. If that is what black people want to complain, I think that it is legitimate.
point it out to the Japanese, I think the Japanese will understand.
