Embattled Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam will not step down, he told his cabinet late Monday, because he says admitting to wearing blackface in medical school would brand him a racist for life.
Northam has been reportedly toying with the idea of resigning as Virginia’s governor since Friday, after a photo surfaced allegedly of him and another medical school classmate dressed to attend a costume party, one as a member of the Ku Klux Klan, and one in “minstrel show style” blackface.
