#its giving modified blackface

[creatingblackcharacters]

Hi. I’m a clown. I love clowns. I love drawing clowns. There is a specific type of clown called the whiteface clown that, you guessed it, covers its face in white makeup. Can I still do that with black clowns, since it’s like its own kind of clown, or should I try to avoid it or modify it?

In a similar vein, the sorta clown lips where it’s like red all around the lips, how should i approach those without making it seem like I’m turning them into a caricature of themselves?

Thank you for all the help you do

I'm glad you enjoy clowns, my friend! Ngl, this a new one, I had to go do some reading.

Well, I found this link on blackface, which is obviously something you want to avoid conveying in your drawings as a racist stereotype for sure. Clowning, especially in the US, does have a strong history with it.

I personally don't see why giving your Black clowns full whiteface makeup would be "racist" per se, in that it's not "whiteface" because the person wearing it is meant to mock a White person, in the way "Blackface" was meant to specifically mock Black people and our features. But I can see how the costume would cause an issue.

Though from a quote from this link- "The Classic (European) Whiteface, sometimes called the 'most majestic and beautiful' of the Whitefaces; an elegant clown, like the Pierrot or Harlequin of commedia dell'arte;" it definitely still shows a bias for whiteness 😅

From what I could find on Reggie Montgomery, Ringling Bros' first Black clown, he personally did not want to perform in whiteface. He preferred to do his own makeup. And given the history, I can see his discomfort with the idea. Another lady I found felt the same.

Essentially, I think that it's your call. Do your research, and recognize the risk you run if you don't have a genuine story to tell with your piece- the intent here matters! Do you have to do the whiteface? Why? Do you know any Black clowns in your clown community? Maybe it would be a good opportunity to go and build with them?

Me personally, rather than doing full whiteface, I'd opt for an Auguste clown. I feel like that's a safer bet, because if you're not confident... 😬And you don't have to use red lips, you could always try another color, and another shape rather than the racist donut lip look. Please don't do the donut lips.

Hope this helps lol, wish I knew more about clowns. I learned something new today too!

My Brain is Fried Like Well Done Hash Browns

I see the light...We are almost through the long (and what I thought) never-ending tunnel that is the history of ballet. DAMNNNN BOIIIIII that took a while! 

Anyway to “almost” conclude this section of topic, this week we continued on with Ballet pioneers and more specifically those who brought the rise of “American Ballet”. Balanchine was a big deal. Not just cause his name is cool or whatever, but because of how much he changed and innovated the ballet world. Since, many people did not associate ballet as “American enough” because of its European background, modern dance became a large portion of what ballet is today. Now what is considered “American Ballet”? There really is not a direct answer for that because it can range from person to person or time to time. Yet, for the sake of discussion, it was noted in the reading that “American” ballet was more energetic, and had more forms of athleticism within it. Balanchine was able to incorporate the high energy and athleticism into his works, giving it a phrase of “Classical Ballet with an American Accent”. He decided to challenge the traditional forms of classical ballet, by removing these complicated story plots, reflecting his personal response and evoking moods or personal relationships. These sort of elements, especially the concept of personal response, were unknown is the world of classical ballet. Obviously times have been evolving and so has our cultures, yet why do we still hold ballet as the foundation to all other techniques? Not every dancer is driven or has a passion for ballet, so why must they be looked down upon and have their talent and passion overlooked for their lack of ballet training? (Been questioning that my whole life)

Now the evolution of Ballet not only modified its definition and movements of it, but it started to open doors for people of color. Arthur Mitchell was one of the first’s African American dancers that truly opened up new opportunities for colored dancers. He not only was the first principle male African American dancer for NYC Ballet, but he also created Dance Theatre of Harlem. He created DTH to create a space where African American dancers could train in a better environment. This push lead to Misty Copeland getting the chance to become the first African American principle dancer at American Ballet Theatre. Misty Copeland not only continues to motivate young colored dancers to pursue their passions, but she also uses her platform to promote and shed light on issues still occurring in the dance realm. In the final discussion we brought up the controversial topic Misty Copeland brought up about the Bolshoi Theatre putting on Blackface in there ballet. Now the post about the dancers was quite old and when Misty brought it up, it was almost ignored. Why? This is a huge issue to address especially when being done in a performance setting, yet no one wanted to say anything about. The truth? Race is difficult to talk about PERIOD. Doesn’t matter whether it is in the arts or in general, people do not want to bring it up. In situations like this though, it is important to bring attention to them so that we can start to address these issues properly. 

I wish I could totally just record and paste our live discussions from class because they areeeeee soooooo much better than this trashy blog of mine. I’ll try to cheat the system...

What Happens in China Doesn’t Stay in China: The Third Reich and Emissions Scandals and….

Way back in 2011, we wrote a post on how what your company does outside China can impact how it is viewed and even how it does in China. Logical, right? We titled that post China Business And Glocalization. Should What Goes Around Come Around? 

What spurred that post was a multinational client of ours who had sought our help in “harmonizing” its China product return policies with those of the United States and Europe. This company had given Americans and Europeans six months to return its product, while giving Chinese customers only 30 days out of concerns that “too many” Chinese customers would take advantage of the six months. Soon though this company was getting reports from China that its customers were not happy about being treated worse than their American and European counterparts.

In that same post I talked about how the China lawyers at our firm were very much used to hearing and dealing with the above sort of thing, but how it had not really occurred to me how a company’s actions inside China might impact it outside China. That was until I read a Newsweek article (from 2010) entitled, Back to the Days of Blackface, which discussed the fallout Colgate-Palmolive incurred from its ownership stake in a product/brand that would be considered offensive to the overwhelming majority of Americans:

Of all the unfamiliar products in a Chinese supermarket, one of the most shocking to American visitors is a toothpaste featuring the logo of a minstrel singer in a top hat, flashing a white smile. Even more shocking: the paste, known as Darlie in English and as Black People Toothpaste in Chinese, is a product of the Hawley & Hazel Group, a Hong Kong–based company established in 1933, which is now owned in part by the Colgate-Palmolive Co.

Darlie used to be called Darkie. According to the book America Brushes Up: The Uses and Marketing of Toothpaste and Toothbrushes in the Twentieth Century, the CEO of Hawley & Hazel saw blackface performer Al Jolson in the U.S. and thought, “Jolson’s wide smile and bright teeth would make an excellent toothpaste logo.” He was right: the firm now claims to be one of the market leaders of toothpaste products in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia.

Colgate purchased 50 percent of the company in 1985 and, after three years of criticisms, switched the name “from Darkie to Darlie and modified the logo to a less crude version of a black man.” In 1989, Colgate-Palmolive’s chairman stated, ‘’It’s just plain wrong … The morally right thing dictated that we must change [in a way] that is least damaging to the economic interests of our partners.’’

“Yet the Chinese name of the product has remained unchanged.”

This product’s name and imagery is simply no big deal in China, where “it wouldn’t even occur to [most people] them that Black People Toothpaste [another brand of toothpaste in China] is offensive.”

But Colgate is a Western company:

Yet Colgate is a Western company, and as such, “should know better,” says Kwame Dougan, an African-Canadian living in China. Colgate declined NEWSWEEK’s interview requests, instead releasing a statement saying, “There are different perspectives on this issue.” Hawley & Hazel also declined an interview request. Darlie doesn’t exactly advertise its relationship with Colgate; Colgate’s Web site has only two mentions of Darlie, which both talk about how the brand is driving growth in the Asia-Pacific region. Darlie products examined in China for this story featured no mention of the Colgate label.

“I think that the brand should simply be retired,” says Laura Berry, executive director of the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility, one of the organizations that originally pressured Colgate to fix its Darkie brand. Until then, Darlie smiles on.

I then went on to talk about how Colgate’s actions bothered me and I could certainly imagine those actions bothering others.

American and European companies have for a long time been concerned with how their China employment practices can impact their reputation outside China. One only need read pretty much any multinational’s requirements on child labor to get a sense of how important the big companies view this issue.

There has in the last six months or so been a growing uproar regarding foreign companies that help China’s surveillance capabilities but it has only been in the last couple weeks that China’s treatment of its minority religious populations (one in particular) has really been coming front and center in terms of how it can impact business worldwide. The following three things have brought this home to me:

1. Facebook. I am seeing people talking about “how something needs to be done about this” and I am seeing the b-word — boycotts — being bandied about.

2. Clients. Actually just one client, a company known for its progressive stance on such things as employee relations and the environment. This company told me that it is “accelerating” its cessation of China manufacturing because its employees are starting to complain about its China connections on “moral and political” grounds. I am reluctant to explain exactly what aspect of China policy it is that has spurred on these complaints (for fear of what might happen to this site in China), but if you have been reading the news and if you follow the link in the next paragraph you will know.

3. The News.  You really must read this BBC article on Volkswagen to believe it. Of all the companies to essentially deny this particular reality, VW has to be it. Let me just say that pretty much every car I have bought and owned in the last ten years has been German and I have had to defend those purchases from time to time to others, including to one of my own daughters. My defense has always been simple and unequivocal. Germany, perhaps as much as any country in history, has recognized the evil it did (in WWII) and has very much sought to make up for that. And we should not punish the kids for the sins of the parents. But when the CEO of a company like Volkswagen — which was so intimately tied in with Hitler’s regime — makes a comment that is hard to believe (or if believed is equally horrific), I do not think it unfair to highlight its past ties with Nazis or its incessant dishonesty. 

I bring all of this up because I see things bubbling and I am just curious who else has been seeing these things and I am also curious regarding what sort of impact you see these things having on businesses worldwide and, most importantly, on your business. What are your employees and customers telling you? Is all this just more incentive for companies to decouple from China? Or will just not saying incredibly stupid things to the press be enough to protect you and your company? Has China — as a number of clients keep telling us — “just too difficult” or “no longer worth all the hassle”?

You tell us.

Is This 1950 Airflyte Canada’s Coolest Nash?

Gord Leeson had just sold a 1957 Nash Metropolitan that he had built for his wife. Donna loved the turquoise and white convertible, but the pint-sized car wasn’t practical for highway driving.

A few years ago, Gord’s brother-in-law bought a farm. Hiding in the shed was a 1951 Nash Statesman. The owner had no intention of selling it, but the styling of the car made an impression on Gord and he decided to start looking for his own fullsized Nash to build.

“I scoured the Internet and found a 1950 Nash Airflyte for sale at Frankman Motors, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota,” Gord told us. “The car came from St. James, Michigan, and was in good shape, with minimum rust.” A deal was made, and one of the employees agreed to trailer the car to the Canadian border crossing in Montana where Gord met him and hauled the car the rest of the way to Didsbury, Alberta. “The poor guy was late, due to having to replace his radiator after hitting a deer, but he assured me the Nash was OK.”

With the car home and on the hoist, the teardown began. “The next step was to ship the rolling body to Wadson’s Hot Rods in Edmonton for a new chassis. The car is a unibody, with no removable chassis, so a tubular chassis was built and tied to the existing unibody chassis. We used a Heidts Mustang II frontend, a four-link rear with a Ford Explorer differential, and coilovers.”

Back at Gord’s shop, brake lines were plumbed and the underside of the body was undercoated. “I wanted a driver, so we used a brand-new 350 Chevy long-block, topped with three Speedway Motors 9Super7 carburetors. The engine was tied to a 200-4R transmission.

“The car was off to my friend Gale’s home garage for bodywork done, then off to a spray booth for paint. I knew the color of dark green that I wanted, but couldn’t seem to find it, until it drove past me one day. The new Fiat 500s have a retro green, and that is the darker green that I used. I wanted the car to keep its original look, so I left door handles and trim where they are supposed to be.”

In the center of the dash, a rolling “breadbox door” covers controls for the Vintage Air system, the Retrosound audio system, cell phone, and other functions. Classic Instruments modified one of their blackface 1957 Chevy Package clusters to fit perfectly in the Nash Uniscope column-mounted gauge pod. Michael Van’t Wout of Crown Automotive Interiors, in Red Deer, Alberta, covered the GMC Yukon bucket seats in medium tan pleather.

These big Nashes have been nicknamed “bathtubs” as long as they’ve existed, so Gord and Donna had no problem choosing personalized tags for the Airflyte—but the Nash is also known as Bertha.

“It’s a great car to drive, and floats down the highway at 70 mph on Artillery wheels and Diamond Back tires,” Gord says. “We get lots of questions as to what is it, and where did we find one.” Bertha’s admirers include the Goodguys judges who selected the Nash for a Builder’s Choice award at the Northwest Nationals in Spokane.

The Leesons haven’t met too many other 1950 Nash Airflyte owners, but one stands out. “One day I happened to be watching Jay Leno’s Garage,” Gord told us. “The featured car on that show was his 1950 Nash Airflyte. Leno mentioned that his car was missing a horn ring, so if anyone had one that they didn’t need, to contact him. I did, and after a wonderful phone visit, Jay suggested that we bring the ring to his shop in person, and he would give us a tour—so we did.” The Leesons enjoyed a great afternoon with a fellow bathtub owner, talking cars and touring his remarkable collection, all thanks to Bertha.

Classic Instruments Tech Tip:

Use Classic Instruments SN57G fittings to angle an oil pressure sender away from the distributor on small-block Chevrolet engines.

Classic Instruments offers an oil pressure sender fitting kit to help install a sender in tight locations, such as a small-block Chevy engine. In a small-block Chevy engine the oil pressure sender cannot be mounted directly in the engine because it is too close to the distributor. The SN57G oil pressure sender fitting kit includes a 1-inch extension and 45-degree elbow that will allow the sender clearance from the distributor. The extension and elbow both have 1/8-inch NPT threads to match the threads of the oil pressure sender. It is important to not use Teflon tape on the threads of the kit as well as the sender in order to ensure good ground contact for the sender and to make the oil pressure gauge read accurately.
