  Viola Davis Rejects Target’s Apology Over “Blackface” Halloween Costume Viola Davis has rejected Target’s apology after the retailer pulled a controversial kids’ Halloween costume that critics said evoked racist minstrel and blackface imagery. Target removed the $25 "Kids' Glows Under Blacklight Circus Clown" costume from its Hyde and EEK! Boutique line after backlash over the design’s exaggerated features, which many linked to Jim Crow-era minstrel and blackface tropes.

A MAN FROM SOUTH WALES, IS PLANNING TO RUN 75 MILES OVER 24 HOURS TO CREATE A GPS DRAWING OF MALE GENITALS. (PHOTO).


 Terry Rosoman, 39, from south Wales, is planning to run 75 miles (120 km) over 24 hours to create a GPS drawing of male genitals.

 His aim is to raise awareness for men’s mental health and fundraise for Movember, a charity focused on issues like mental health and prostate cancer. Rosoman, who overcame his own struggles with health and addiction, believes the bold shape will help reach a larger audience, particularly men.


He will start his challenge at Abergavenny railway station on Friday at sunset and hopes to finish by the same time Saturday. Rosoman is experienced in endurance events, having previously climbed Pen Y Fan ten times in a day and completed a 50-mile ultramarathon with weights. However, he says this will be his longest and most unique challenge yet.


Inspired by his personal transformation, Rosoman wants his efforts to encourage others, especially men, to set “grand goals” and find purpose beyond unhealthy habits. He hopes his journey from unhealthy living to resilience will resonate with those struggling, offering a message of hope.


Rosoman credits endurance challenges with changing his life, from quitting drinking and smoking to adopting a healthier lifestyle. He now wants to inspire others to take on personal challenges, finding meaning and direction through these experiences.
