"The video depicts members of Lambda Theta Delta, an Asian-American fraternity, performing to the Justin Timberlake Song, "Suit and Tie," ...one of the members, in an attempt to portray rapper Jay-Z, appears made up in blackface."
(Might be a good conversation starter fo an adult conversation class addressing the sensitive topic of "racism.") |

Yes rascism is a sure fire topic starter in south Korean schools. Perhaps the frat boys were doing this as a tribute to Jay-z? |

Idiots. Should get put through the tolerance and diversity ringer as punishment for their insensitivity. These aren't immigrant students, these are AAs. They should know better. |
