I try to be understanding of people's situations and intentions in issues like this but it's like this:
when I was in HS our choral group did a Tom Sawyer musical. Now there were no black kids in the group so the teacher selected one of the kids to play/sing the part of a black grandmother. The girl happened to be my very best friend and she was required to do the part in black face. As racist as this may seem, she was 15-years old and it was not her decision to make (a stupid, insensitive choice on the part of the choral director). But now compare this against the knowing actions of a full grown man, one who has sorely tried to portray himself as a race-sensitive individual. And he made the choice to do it more than once. Liberals pardon me, but I am having a problem not thinking Trudeau is a closet racist.
