Probably more about the history of racial oppression than the actual act.
Just because "it shouldn't be" doesn't mean it won't be interpreted as at least insensitive, if not deeply offensive.
Yes, get an actor of the particular skin colour/accent required.

Oh I understand it's a social no-no
but I still think there's a difference between a white person blacking up to essentially take a black person's job, or to misrepresent them (e.g. a minstrel show), and getting upset over people wearing clothes for their aesthetic value without attaching religious significance to them. I don't think it's the same issue.

Omigod, it's almost as if nuance is thing!
Yeah, time place intent etc.
If I have African ceremonial masks in my house, it's not because I'm pretending I'm a witch doctor, it's because I thought they were cool and bought them on my gap year doing charidee work.
Or whatever. Just dont be a dick.
