Danny Morrison: Blackface

Image
Of all the stupid, racist ideas that people can have, why is Blackface one of them? Here is Danny Morrison an Ex New Zealand cricketer, now commentator for the IPL, thinking it's funny to dress up as a Hindu. I'm kinda guessing he also put on a fake Indian accent, thinking it was funny. Did he think twice before doing this? Did his bosses have a wee word with him before him? Did he think how freakin insulting and dumb it was? Was he still stuck in some sort of time warp, with the sense of humour of  a 11 year old boy. His supporters will scream, "It's just PC gone mad" No it's not PC gone mad, it's disgraceful that a person in the year 2016 would think this is funny. It's not the least bit clever or funny. I hope the sports media in New Zealand, speaks out against this. But I'm not holding my breath.
