WILL.I.AM RESPONSE TO THE BLACKFACE CRITICS
Producer and member of the Black Eyed Peas, Will.I.Am, responded on Twitter to the criticisms of the ‘blackface attire‘ that he wore at the VMAs:
“1st. just because I where all black including head mask as expression and emphasize my outfit, it shouldn’t be looked at as racial…Let go of the past. there are far more important things 2 bark about. (Jobs, health, education) not a black man wearing all black everything…Are you guys serious? my outfit set “black people back 100 yrs” choose your twits wisely. no education sets people back, no jobs, bad health.” [ SOURCE ]
