Full Story
A video shared on social media is being used to falsely accuse former Vice President Joe Biden of participating in a Black Face skit.
In reality, the video in question has been manipulated to darken the face of a Black singer at a 1985 fundraiser, whom Biden then a senator, now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee introduces on stage.
The video is a clip from a Democratic Congressional Dinner during which Biden jokingly introduced a Black singer, Jerome Powell, as Michael Jackson and later referred to him as Prince moments that were the subject of a Washington Examiner story earlier this year.
