Episode 569: #564 - Man Wears Blackface to Sell Car & Yishun Bird Feeder Goes too Far (introducing Tristen & Dom!) - Yah Lah But

What, another case of blackface in Singapore? We discuss a car dealership’s recent promo video that features a staff member in dark makeup. It directly references an African-themed meme so we ask: is this racism, or just cringe humour? How does this compare with other instances of blackface / brownface we’ve seen? Hear our takes on pigeons as we talk about a woman who has fed so many of them in Yishun, that the National Parks Board (NParks) is stepping in to control their numbers. Bringing younger perspectives to these issues are Team YLB’s very own Tristen and Dom, finally making their on-camera debut!
