March!!! Spring is a Comin!

Here Are Some photos From today's fun-ness. They're modern clowns. American, African , and French.

They're also my reaction to someone saying "I think hes only into white boys."

I'm trying to say a few things.
-clowns make jokes and light of situations, so its an obvious symbol
-white face is a play on black face, so again obvious

I've run into this many many times in my life, and its never stopped being funny. I know many multiracial people who came out white looking, and many who came out darker than me. But because one of our parents is black (its hardly ever because one is white) we're thrown out of many dating pools. So I decided to paint my face white and make assclowns out of them. Its my way of saying "What about now? Am I good enough now?" Which will always be SUCH a twisted joke.

P.S.- Vogue Italy is trippin'. Black face editorals are fine I get that. To make a whole black section is not. Its separatism. Like how many schools had separate black and white proms or black and white talent shows. Its like saying its the same difference as men and women having two different sporting events for the same sport.
