So get this, this was done in pure comedy and live. Everybody was laughing with them, nobody was looking at it as racist until the so called 'media' brought it up as racist.
My personal view on this is that it wasn't racist. You can interpret it as racist all you want, but the guys who were doing the act weren't being racist. To be racist, you have to BE racist, not say something that can sound it.
Anyway, FP, what are your views on this so-called racist video?

who cares if it was racist or not; it was completely retarded and unfunny
This isn't the first time that black makeup was used to change someone's skin color to black. I remember watching an old version of Othello with make up like this.
It was very creepy actually. Not racist at all.
if anything this vid wasn't racist,,and it wasn't joking with anything that the reporters who did the story haven't talked about themselves.
Australians: That was outta line mate, shit like that shouldn't be on TV. Don't do it again.
Rest of the world (according to the media): HOLY FUCKING SHIT AUSTRALIA IS ASS BACKWARDS AND FULL OF FUCKING RACISTS
I thought the "Where's Kamahl" thing was the most racist.
this is pathetic. Black people themselves have done far more racist (and far more funny) things about themselves, though for different reasons.

no, you're just trying to score some funnies and start a racial war.
It's funny because in Australia where this was made, no one got worked up over it, but the American media went crazy.
Wow, your almost a week late

It's a well known fact that Australia has problems with racism.
I can see how this could be seen as offensive, what with their big fuzzy hair and the whole blacking up thing.
This isn't racist FYI

the only people who thought this was racist was white middle classed americans

It's a well known fact that Americans are ignorant.
Yeaaaaa.... blackface still has a really bad racist connotation to it.
I didn't think it was racist, I thought that it's a bit out dated and could be found to be offensive.

Australian isn't a race; it's a nationality.
However, how do you know he's using 'mate' because 'Australians use it'? Maybe he uses it in everyday speech. You don't know.
Mate is a fairly common word in English English.
Aboriginals paint their faces white all the time.

Yeah, painting your face black to pretend to be a 'black' person just isn't cricket anymore.
That was stupid
