the ‘blackface’ atl teacher is black, does that change the way you view the incident?

You’ve probably heard about the Atlanta charter school that’s under fire after students were made wear “Blackface” masks during a Black History performance.
Does context matter in this case? The teacher who had the idea for the masks is a Black woman who says she wanted to show a part of Black History that’s “not pretty”, and actually denounce the way Black people often had to wear a “mask” in order to survive in an anti-Black world. (see screen capture below)
Does that change the way you view the incident? Can it be seen as art being used in a provocative way by a Black person to denounce their oppression?
