There's a story behind it that I heard from some school administrator yesterday. Basically it is, once again, taken out of context. The kids do this at every game regardless of who they play, and this is their face paint of school colors. I don't know if the pic posted has been photo shopped or not to insert the black kid.
Trumpers and Native American face off
- Thread starter Cuddles
- Start date
I highly doubt they innocently paint themselves in black face because it is their school colors.
And now Smirking Smiley says he was respectful and trying to defuse the situation:

MAGA-Hatters are so misunderstood. I think it's time for the Trump acolytes here to get out their bigger spoons. It's getting thick.

Lets hear it from the kids themselves. You be the judge.

Some claiming to be former students said that the paint was a show of school spirit and part of a blackout theme at some games, with students wearing all black. The latter part appears to be true; video clips dating back to 2011 show that students wore all black (and some with black paint on their faces and bodies) during some basketball games and that the school hosted a multitude of theme nights at games.

No surprise the black face boys wear MAGA hats today.
It is not photoshopped.

They proudly claim they did it:
"Co-host Steve Doocy asked the Kentucky private-school senior Sam Schroder: “Five years ago, there was a pep rally where one of the members of the school body appeared to have blackface on. People have even asked you to explain that. How do you explain that?”
Schroder, wearing a white button-down shirt and a blue striped tie, said: “I just explain it as showing school spirit. We have many themes. Like nerd, business, whiteout, blueout, blackout—as you’ve seen in the video. Ever since I’ve gone to CovCath, we haven’t been able to wear black paint because of the video, but I know the kids meant nothing by it, it’s just showing school spirit.”
So, there you have it. That's their explanation, believe it or not, it's up to the viewer/reader. What we know with absolute certainty is that these kids did nothing wrong over this past weekend. We know with certainty that they were verbally assaulted by ADULT black men. We know without doubt that it was the ADULT Native American who approached then and got in their faces. We know beyond any shadow of doubt that the media ran with a narrative of hate before doing any fact checking. And we now see that the left is doing their level best to circle the wagons, launch attacks at the children, excuse the adults and tie it all to Orange man bad. IOW, just another day in radical leftist land.
