Is this 'Black Face'?



































~Painting white people black for the entertainment of other white people is offensive in ways that stand entirely apart from cultural context.~

French Vogue did a shoot with Dutch model Lara Stone and black people are angry about it. Lara was painted black.

The general consensus is that the 'fashion world' does not have respect for 'black models'. They are wondering why a black model was not hired for the shoot instead of painting a white girl black.

Is this disrespectful to the black world or is it just artistic?
