Canadian PM Justin Trudeau admits wearing brownface in 2001 school photo, apologizes



Red-faced Trudeau struggles to contain fallout after more images of him in blackface and brownface emerge
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is struggling to contain a growing firestorm after a series of images of him in blackface and brownface have surfaced amid a tough re-election battle. Three images surfaced since late Wednesday, the latest a video Thursday that shows Trudeau in the early 1990s in blackface.
The scandal has damaged Trudeau's reputation as a progressive champion of diversity and thrown his campaign into chaos ahead of the Oct. 21 election. He apologized Thursday but stopped short of saying whether more photos or videos of him in darkened makeup existed. Trudeau, son of the late former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, blamed his "place of privilege" for his actions.
