... myself included.
In my personal experience it's not that a social group thinks it "OK" it's literally that they do not have the historical knowledge of what blackface actually means. It's deplorable either way but you have to make room for folks who have good intentions but just don't have the historical knowledge base. If no one ever tells you, how would you know it was bad ? You're not born with knowledge. Someone has to tell you things. And so long as they correct the behavior once they're made aware of how bad it is, how can you *totally* fault them ?
