As far as I can tell, the actual act of dressing up like a black person is rarely disrespectful. Especially in today's culture. Tyler Bozak doesn't hate black people. What was originally offensive about blackface wasn't that people were dressing up, it's that Hollywood was paying white actors to put on makeup and act black as opposed to just hiring black actors.

So unless Bozak put some brother out of work with his costume, those offended (None of whom are black, I guarantee you) need to have a coke and a smile and shut up.
