nah man. Blackface is totally taboo and not allowed and anyone who has ever done it in the past should be hounded from their job and publicly shamed until they repent and die*.


*unless you're Robert Downey Jnr for some reason......

I did not know anything about Scarlett Johansson wearing blackface for this role. All I heard was that she might be portraying a female Bond who is black.
Blackface is an entirely different level altogether.
It's feasible for someone to have light skin and identify as black - much the same as someone with olive or dark complexion can identify as white.

Personally, I think if they are going to go down that road using an african american actress for the role would make more sense.
