Line 18:
An example of [[Values Dissonance]] between the United Kingdom and the US would be the use of blackface imagery, which formed the centrepiece of the [[BBC]]'s ''[[Black-and-White Minstrel Show]]'' until the 1970s. Blackface was/is also used in other countries, such as Japan, The Netherlands, and Australia, where it does not have the same cultural stigma.
'''WARNING: By its nature, this trope is highly controversial. You may well encounter a custom or belief on this page that you don't think is dissonant at all; you might even be inclined to vehemently defend it. Indeed, concepts of right or wrong or even of what is "proper" are rarely universal in the truest sense of the word. Across all the advanced civilizations of Earth's history, just about anything has been or can potentially be justified, or at least rationalized. So if you see an example here that you disagree with, please refrain from [[Conversation in the Main Page|adding your own interpretation]]. If you think an example is biased one way or another, please start a thread on [[Talk:{{PAGENAME}}|the discussion page]] and get everybody's opinions on the matter before making a change.'''
