People Are Outraged At Chris Lilley For Doing 'Blackface' On His New Show

...

Chris Lilley's new show 'Lunatics' debuted on Netflix this weekend, and already people are pointing out an unfortunate reality: Chris Lilley is again donning blackface for one of the characters.

Lilley came under fire in 2011 when S.Mouse, a character he portrayed on Angry Boys, came under fire from the U.S. hip hop community. It seems Lilley hasn't learned, with 'Jana' a pet psychic from South Africa seeing him wear an uncomfortable shade of makeup.

Defenders claim he is parodying Rachel Dolezal, a white woman who claimed to be African-American - but perhaps it would have been safer for him to just stay away, especially with Lilley's history.
