Activities of the Working Group 2016, para. 28
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- The blackface phenomenon, which portrays people of African descent in a negative light, remains a global concern. It dehumanizes people of African descent and attacks their dignity and rights. The contemporary manifestation of blackface is indicative of the increasing prevalence of racial stereotypes. Among other things, it is a product of past inhumane practices such as enslavement, colonialism and apartheid. It was perpetrated by Jim Crow and nurtured by those who refused to acknowledge that people of African descent were victims of slavery, the slave trade, colonialism and apartheid.
