When I was in elementary school, mid 80s, the school put on a play for black history month. For whatever reason they chose me to play George Washington Carver and the plan was to put me in black face. I was like 6 and was not part of the discussion. I objected and they were like nah you're wearing blackface, so you know what I did? I bailed on the whole thing and didn't go to school at all. Fuck Clint Walker.

That's nutz, when I was 6 I was dressing up as Don King for Halloween. You are the true moving force and face for african americans since day one.

It was probablu more not wanting them to rub any colored anything on my face, but I for sure knew he was black and I was white and there were black kids who could probably be up there.

[oyolar]

Didn’t Trevor Colden dress up in blackface too?

[somedudefromnj]

what a fuckin dildo.

Justin Henry is the shit

[dirtywork81]

hope Clint is avoiding those calls from Supra. Someone is about to get dropped.

“I’m sorry I offended you.”

not an apology.
call out culture is pretty whack, but I believe we can make an acceptation in this situation.
Blackface is seriously fucked up, and thinking its no big deal is even worse.
Clint walker is the worst, I know he's a good at skateboards, but he's pretty much made a name for himself being a garbage example a human.

Considering his style after mystery, I wouldn't be surprised

I recall that too, but am not spend time trying to find it.

It's only fucked up because our society takes it to the extreme and make it fucked up. Hearing most of you guys basically wanting to kill the guy for dressing up as a character from a funny ass comedy skit who thinks he's white to begin with is dumb. I do agree that we can not go there and shouldn't be doing that but the same rule should go for all races. Clint obviously didn't understand what grounds he was steping into and controversy that dressing up as Clayton Bigsby could cause.
I'm waiting for everyone to spam racist all over his accounts now and blow him over for a dumb mistake.

you’re talking about society “taking it to the extreme” but saying people here “basically wanting to kill the guy” but nobody is really talking about that.

Some people didn’t like Clint before this and this just gave them more justification on why they don’t like him.

[UselessAsshole]

Saying "7 years ago" like he wasn't a 21 year old man at that point in his life. 

[Pete]

damn i didnt see justins response. very shalom of him to take the high road, nice move.

clint walkner is the worst, confirmed.

So I guess it's like if you're a Republican and you don't like Liberals then you catch a Liberal politician slippin as blackface in a 1984 yearbook. So you go in for the attack because you don't like them to begin with, Yeah I know how we work.

its the liberal politicians fault for getting caught slippin doing blackface in the first place.

Don’t do blackface and shit like this won’t happen.

Clint Walker is the warning Dave Chappelle's friends were giving him when he showed them the Bigsby sketch for the first time.  Clint should just focus his shit and that man bun.

Them ladies gave him the blackface pass. Sall good.

[feedmeseymour]

i also find his pony tail highly offensive.

I think he's a kook by taking Halloween that serious and posting his costume on social media. At least for me, skaters back in the day didn't care much for dressing up on Halloween...If they did, the costume was definitely evident they skated or don't give a fuck...They didn't really care about anything other than skating, mags, and vids...way more militant than today's standard.

It's still weird for me to see skaters in 2019 culturally behaving like people who don't skate. Even though most skaters having been acting like regular people for at least 15 years. Add that to the major ignorance of his costume, and he's a huge kook. I dont think he needs any attention either positive, negative, apology, group hugs, etc...just let him fade into obscurity.

What a sad way to live life. You don’t have to love skating any less to do anything in life that isn’t simultaneously advertising that you can ride a skateboard.

Well I'm guilty of posting in a thread that I dislike the subject so much I don't have an opinion of it because
1. He's a kook for taking Halloween that serious
2. He's a kook for his costume
Conclusion: Huge Kook
I'm old school with calling people kooks. If I think you're a kook, I don't really have an opinion about you at all. Except go be a kook somewhere else, because I prefer to mind my own business and not deal with kooks.
His kookery and irrelevancy in my skate life is not worthy enough for me to move my lips or in this case use my fingers. So I'm blowing it by posting, but I felt like posting anyway because ironically for some reason something good in real life usually happens when I post, and I'm hoping for the best. Shalom

Must be nice to be privileged to the point where you can be indifferent in situations of blatant racism
