BLACK FACE IS OFFENSIVE!!!! However, there is a blackface emoji option on android phones. This Emoji is offensive because there are no other colored face emojis outside of the orignial yellow colored basic faces. Which forces me to draw a conclusion that this face represents Blackface!!! If there were green, blue, purple, pink Etc colored faces this would seem less racist or offensive.

This is a plead to whoever creates generic emojis on Android phones to remove this black face or create various colors to indicate it's not meant in a derogatory manner or fashion.

(CNN)It's been nearly 200 years since white performers first started painting their faces black to mock enslaved Africans in minstrel shows across the United States. It was racist and offensive then, and it's still racist and offensive today.
