See for yourself. Don't worry about it; I loved the Mummer's when I moved here 10 years ago, too. You have to see the stories about the racist stuff every year for a few years to really notice that it's a pattern and definitely not an accident.

His friend liked wearing blackface, and his friend just died!

What do you mean, "surely his friend liked things other than that?"
