It is such a simple rule, just don’t use blackface.
I don’t understand how this happens every Halloween and people think that they won’t get noticed for such racist behavior.
A University of Central Arkansas fraternity has been suspended after a photo was posted on Instagram. In the picture a student is shown to be in black face, wearing a Bill Cosby style sweater.
President Tom Courtway quickly released a statement on the incident, condemning the photo and the student’s act.
“This institution embraces all races, cultures, and nationalities,” the statement said. “We strive each day to be welcoming, inclusive and diverse, and will always continue to do so.”
Courtway ends the statement promising that the incident will be investigated by the university and will be dealt with accordingly.
The fraternity, Sigma Tau Gamma, has been suspended by the Sigma Tau Gamma Headquarters, according to UCA’s Twitter.
