I'm sure we all want to resurrect the korra copslay thing itself here but, and I ask this in all sincerity... isn't that kind of a mixed message? I mean, are you doing it for yourself or for others?

Also, I seem to recall most of the time it's people tanning. I don't think I've actually seen any instances of people literally trying to blackface or use off-color makeup to that effect.

If I'm wrong on this... I imagine it'd look rather horrible. And wnat to see pics!

But I don't think getting some sun to make the costume a tad more accurate is so bad.

I know there was at least one person who used make up to achieve the effect, but it didn't look that bad?

Though I think what the OC is getting at is that there are places where doing that is really offensive because of historical/cultural reasons to use blackface. It's kind of like using the n-word. Even if you're using it in something you're 'doing for yourself', depending on where you are, you might very well be hitting on racial issues that still have an impact.

So, I guess the best way to put it is: Do it for yourself, but respect the cultural issues where you're at. [At least, that's what I'm assuming they're getting at]
