Video footage obtained by The Daily Caller shows Hollywood screen legend Tom Hanks and Eagles musician Glenn Frey at a 2004 fundraising auction, playfully interacting with a white man dressed as an African native, complete with blackface makeup and a giant Afro wig.
Hanks most recently provided the narration for “The Road We’ve Traveled,” a 17-minute-long campaign video meant to help President Barack Obama win re-election in November.
TheDC received 10 minutes of video from a source who filmed the fundraiser and said Hanks’ “sharp-elbowed partisanship” prompted her to have the tape digitized. The portion TheDC chose to excerpt for its news report begins at time index 04:50.
