Blackout? Haven't heard that name. A local thing?

When I was that age; the nuns (God's bouncers) watched for inappropriate behavior. Screaming and yelling? Some latitude. Black face? Ohh you would be in big trouble.

Given they do it too, apparently not.

BTW a lot of kids in our school did actual blackface for some middle school project where you had to become a historical figure. There were a bunch of MLKs and Nelson Mandelas. And our school had no black kids.

At that school? Apparently. Kind of violated their student handbook rules on how you conducted yourself. Hypocrisy? Hmm. Another discussion......

Before they pulled it down. They had a link to their student handbook which had rules about how you were supposed to treat other people, etc.

Blackface is painting your face black and imitating a black person. A blackout is when fans and students show unity by all dressing in black, carrying black placards with some particularly spirited people painting their bodies like people do at any game. It exactly as racist as a whiteout game Ala Penn state. This was not racial.

If you saw a verbal confrontation occurring between two groups and decided that you needed to stop it but when you walked over to one of the groups one of the people with you started yelling racist insults at the people you were trying to pacify wouldn't you tell them to chill out?

If there is a lawsuit, who do you think will be sued, and how bad will the damage be?

There will almost certainly not be a lawsuit provided media outlets issue corrections. To be slander or libel it must be a false claim, that caused damage, and was either known to be false or should have been known to be false. Since most places reported what they saw in the video and what Phillips said that last point would be really hard.

I'm not sure exactly how reliable the SPLC is at determining who's a hate group or not.

What the source builds on is the fact that the Black Hebrew Israelites were doing exactly what the boys were accused of. They were insulting and denigrating the native demonstrators at the event that ended earlier in the day.

Which I thought we also established earlier in the thread. Maybe I'm wrong.

Yeah, they've been pretty loose about who they slander as a "hate group" and "racist" in the past few years. That said, they're right this time.

Then the best way everyone can cover their ass is at this point would be for everyone to collectively go after the BHI.
