Justin Trudeau needlessly apologizes for 20 year old Arabian Nights’ Party photo appearing in Brownface


I'm not a fan of Justin Trudeau and I disagree with everything he stands for.  But, this idea that an apology was necessary for a 20 year photo is ridiculous on it's face.  There's nothing wrong with a white guy wearing theatrical makeup to an Arabian Nights theme party.  I do not accept the premises that's its racially insensitive even though he does.  Actors have been doing this for decades and there's nothing wrong with it--end of story!  Get a grip! 

Time Magazine reports Justin Trudeau, Canada’s prime minister, wore brownface makeup to a party at the private school where he was teaching in the spring of 2001. TIME has obtained a photograph of the incident.

The photograph has not been previously reported. The picture was taken at an “Arabian Nights”-themed gala. It shows Trudeau, then the 29-year-old son of the late former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, wearing a turban and robes with his face, neck and hands completely darkened. The photograph appears in the 2000-2001 yearbook of West Point Grey Academy, a private day school where Trudeau was a teacher.

  1. When does his flogging begin? I don't care about this black face crappola. I just don't like this pansy.

  2. Trudeau must not only apologize. He must be driven from public office, and indeed public view.
    Alinsky's rule #4 - "Make the enemy live up to its own rules." They view you as the enemy. Return the favor.
    No more one-sided application. The left has kept up vicious attacks on Justice Kavanaugh since July 2018, spewing lies reaching back 30 years.
    To hell with one-way decency. Trudeau out!
