I hope that brings some comfort, but at the same time, white people make a ton of money from this...I guess I'll call it mimicry/mockery.

Blacksound by @drmadmo.bsky.social is a great book that goes in depth about how this happened in American music blacksoundbook.com

Couple weeks ago, met author of THE book on blackface ministrelsy.

The book by NYU music scholar & musician Matthew D. Morrison, PhD @drmadmo.bsky.social
"Blacksound" describes the part working class Irish and Scottish immigrants played in emergence of blackface minstrelsy.

Highly recommend
