When traveling to other parts of the country or other parts of the world, I regularly try to tell people that Utah is not so different from anyplace else. That we're not living in the 1950s.
At 6:42 a.m. on KSL’s local newscast, a group of Odyssey Dance Theatre dancers promoting the troupe’s upcoming performance of its version of “The Nutcracker” — “ReduxNut-Cracker” — appeared at the City Creek Center. A group of white women wearing Chinese silk dresses and Asian conical hats, hands folded in from of them, bowed, hopped and made exaggerated gestures.
It looks like at least some of them were wearing eye makeup in an attempt to look Asian.
