    In Coming to America, Eddie played the barber and also the old Jewish guy. And maybe others. Arsenio played a few characters also.

    Of course the context of that episode is that Dorothy's son is going to marry a black woman and her family comes to visit. It starts off awkward but ends with everyone agreeing that cultural differences can and should be overcome.

    It's been a while since I've seen the episode, but IIRC, the "black face" gag is that Rose (Betty White) comes into the kitchen wearing a mud mask when the fiancee's mother arrives. Either the roommates try to stop her from embarrassing herself, or the mother-in-law to be looks at her funny. Something pretty innocuous. It's not her pretending to be black.

    But of course, context doesn't matter anymore when there is virtue signaling to be done.

    In response to a crude joke about George Floyd made by a Kansas State University student, the football team has refused to participate in the upcoming season until the school develops a policy against “racist, threatening, or disrespectful comments” made by students. The penalty they seek is expulsion for such offenses. I’m fine with the first two, but who decides what constitutes “disrespectful?” If someone makes an anti-Trump comment and a Republican student finds it disrespectful, will that result in expulsion too? It seems too vague to enforce fairly and will be come censorship penalized by ruining lives.
