As said it was a character performance and on the cusp of acceptability in relation to cultural appropriation so I'm not sure.
Was it insensitive? In hindsight yes, has he issued an apology? Yes, Do I think it's a reason to oust him from his position? No.
I have never mentioned ousting him from his position, but hypocrite does spring to mind, I don't think the fact that it was '18 years ago' which seems to be the over riding rebuttal for this has any bearing whatsoever
