For years black people have painted their faces white and performed without any outrage expressed in the media by any social justice warriors. It's totally unacceptable and makes me feel as though my culture has been appropriated and my ancestral integrity diminished and tarnished irreparably.

I didn't realize you were French!

The classic "white clown" is derived from the Pierrot character. His makeup is white, usually with facial features such as eyebrows emphasized in black. He is the more intelligent and sophisticated clown, contrasting with the rude or grotesque Auguste types.

That makes me think of the Aboriginal Dreamtime, and the Last Wave, which I consider Weir's best.

Thanks for that recommendation! I just revisited Gallipoli the other day and am in a Weir kind of mood, so I’ll check that out today!
