Someone Wore Blackface And A PK Subban Jersey In Sochi

Someone In Sochi Thought PK Subban Blackface Was A Good Idea
The Huffington Post Canada

Someone thought it would be a good idea to wear blackface and a PK Subban jersey to Wednesday's Olympic hockey game between Canada and Latvia.

Sadly, it's not the first time Subban, the only black player on the men's hockey team, has faced racism in Sochi. The Canadian team's black jerseys also led to some ugly tweets last week.

And fans in Montreal, where Subban plays for the Canadiens, have also worn blackface in the past.

WHEN ARE PEOPLE GOING TO FIGURE OUT THAT THIS NOT OK?!?
