A sheriff hopeful admitted in an ad that he wore blackface. He’s not apologizing.
No need to apologize, your campaign ad is comedy gold.
A white male running for sheriff in South Carolina wore blackface when he was younger. I know most probably do not wear blackface, but it is hardly surprising... tell us something surprising?
"As a sixteen-year-old I received a ticket for not having my driver's license in my possession."
Okay, that's too much!
A South Carolina sheriff candidate is fessing up to something that has tarnished many politicians: sporting blackface.
Craig Stivender, 36, released a campaign ad Tuesday in which he outlines the importance of transparency.
Sitting in a rocking chair and looking directly in the camera, Stivender revealed that he received a ticket as a 16-year-old for not having a driver’s license and that he is married for the second time. He also said he’s lost his temper at work as a police officer and that he was reprimanded for his actions. He even admits to being responsible for some fender benders.
But the most shocking disclosure was his admission that he wore blackface 10 years ago at a law enforcement Halloween party. The video included an image of Stivender with darkened skin in a turquoise shirt, with studs in his ear and a gold chain around his neck. He was standing next to a black woman.
