The CNN news reports the events of white men party which engenders the racial discrimination problems. This story derived from the pictures posted in “Facebook.com” the popular sociality connecting site in the United States. These parties were called “the Gangsters,” which were arranged on Martin Luther King’s Day in several universities such as the Connecticut School of Law, university of North Carolina, and some universities in Texas.
On this site, it demonstrates the pictures of white men dressing and decorating in the same manner of African-American. Some of them tanned their skins completely dark like the black guys. Others had their hair cut like the so-called the “gangsters of black guys.”
These impersonating characteristics made the black student infuriated and called the White guys to apologize them. They said that this manner was totally inappropriate, particularly arranged on the National holiday of their African-American hero – Martin Luther King. His honorable hero did bravely fight for civil rights movement for them in the mid of nineteenth century. The white guys should have praise him. Even though the white guys have said that they had not intended to insult him or black guys, they should be aware of what they were doing!
In contrast, the white students spoke that they did not consider those parties were not inappropriate and shamed to insult any black guys. It was just a party. However, the organizers had not response for the opposite yet. Only did some arranging men say that they would like to apologize if such activities estranged the black’s feeling.
These events are salutary for us to remind ourselves about what we will do. Maybe, the face – and the term of losing face – in Asian country culture is very important for even the westerners!
