Jesus. Northam is saying the photo isn't him but that he DID do blackface at around the same time, in a separate incident.
Northam saying that his memory of the OTHER blackface incident is seared on his brain. Which means he remembered it and hid it throughout the campaign and his first year in office.
"I hid the fact that I had a blackface incident throughout my political career but I'm not going to fall on my sword now" is a tack that's sure to endear him to his Dem colleagues.
Northam now saying the other blackface incident—the one he admits to—occurred a few months after the photo appeared, after he graduated from med school. Well.
"All of you will be reassured to know that I am not the one in that photo," says the guy who just admitted he put shoe polish in his face as part of a Michael Jackson costume in the fall of 1984.
