Antoine Griezmann is Racially Insensitive
Sometimes, I wonder how some people think. When its a college student who does it, you wonder whether he has any sense. When its a multi-millionaire with a full blown PR service at his disposal, you just have to wonder whether he is mentally ill. Or perhaps this is a U.S thing? For those of you who live in Europe, is this seen as racially insensitive?

He is dumb. It is not a "Europe" thing b/c oyibo in the UK are more likely to be aware that "blacking up" is not something you'd get away with. Continental Europe is still living in the 60s in terms of race relations.

Quite unfortunate.
Considering the uproar every time this happens, I wonder what goes through the persons mind when they start the process.

Imitation is the greatest form of flatery.
People need to get over their inferiority complex and stop being so sensitive.

Your comment, like Griezmann's expression, has no place in this forum or civilized society. You should consider amending your post.bret- hart wrote:I pray we get out of our group and run into those no deodorant using frog eating french fuuks in Russia. We owe them a serious beating

I take it you do not know the origin of the "black face?" Unfortunately for you, your position on this matter has made it impossible to educate you on the social issues surrounding the "black face."

Also, isnt it funny no one mentions here that he is also imitating black culture, not just the skin.
if we want skin color to stop being an issue, then we have to stop making skin color an issue.

Re: Antoine Griezmann is Racially Insensitive
The issue is, blacking up was a formerly, colloquial form of casual, every day racism. Griezman may well have thought he won the fancy dress hands down, but has inadvertently opened himself up to all manner of criticism. Le angel*.

Not personally offended by this. There are other more pernicious forms of racism which are of greater concern.

Re: Antoine Griezmann is Racially Insensitive
Racially insensitive? Yes. Do I think he was trying to be racially malicious, I do not know but it doesn't seem like it. I have never lived in France so I am not sure what their race-relations is like besides what I see and read on the news.

Re: Antoine Griezmann is Racially Insensitive
^He probably thought it was cool, a detached, socially unconscious id*ot like most footballers. Fortunately for Griezman, he chose the right race to play out his idiocy before. Imagine had he dressed up as a Rabbi.
