It's a great costume, clever theme, and not even remotely similar to blackface from some old minstrel show.

Meanwhile, more than 50 students gathered at Mary Lyon Hall Wednesday to say, as they wait for administrators to take action, they’re the ones left carrying the weight of the woman’s actions — even when they weren’t the ones in the wrong.
It’s crazy how people on this campus have been saying, ‘You’re overreacting,’ or ‘You’re being over-dramatic, it’s just a costume,’” Kiana Taylor, 21, said.
“There are people in that room crying. Hurting. She should not be allowed to walk around campus right now. Why is she holding her head up high when we’re walking around like we did something wrong? As people of color we’re the ones left to deal with this.”
Crying over this Halloween costume is crazy.

I saw the interviews with students on Wheaton's campus.

Makes ya wonder how we're not all dead yet with loons like that running around.
