At the University of Southern Mississippi, a group of white sorority girls dressed for an 80’s-themed costume party caused a flap by wearing blackface make-up, dressed as the Huxtable family from The Cosby Show.
Although, to be fair, to many people, the students dressed as two oldest Huxtable daughters still looked white.
Neither the university nor the national office for the sorority find the situation at all amusing, but that’s because this Huxtable family has no laugh track.
Bill Cosby was just disappointed that those girls who got themselves into college weren’t really black.
The students contend that they had no racist intentions and are very embarrassed. When they said their faces were red, they were condemned by Native American groups.
