Americans finding out about Your Face Sounds Familiar is always a kii

its so funny how the girls are quick to pull out 

the "world doesn't revolve around America." 

excuse but in the same breath try to make 

grown adults seem innocently ignorant 

for blatantly anti-black behavior.

 

since when does someone's lack of basic 

human decency depend on this false 

idea that they know next to nothing  

about the United States or racism

Central Europe does not have the same history of blackface as the US. That doesn't mean it's ok (especially given how racist CE is), but this hardly comes as a shock.

Isn't Poland quite behind when I comes to racism? Their treatment of refugees is disappointing but not surprised.

 

Also you can play a black singer and not do blackface 

Not just racism. Everything about this country is tapped

Do you think internet is exclusively American or something? You do realise that other countries have their own internet cultures, right? Why would you be researching something you don't know is offensive?

I'm not Polish and didn't bother to watch the video, did she say that? Do you have any receipts for what you're saying?

 

Because I actually grew up in CE and know for a fact that the blackface conversation non-existent in the area.

There's a yearly discourse around Piet in the netherlands and belgium, of course a country has much less debate about this (i'd say it's close to none in poland) is going to be even more behind on this issue. I can even remember when the discourse started to really take off in germany and that's not too long ago either.
