Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is in quite a pickle after the conservative publication Big League Politics published the page of Northam’s medical school yearbook that included a photo of two individuals, one in a Ku Klux Klan hood and the other in blackface.

After other outlets confirmed the contents of this page, Northam released a statement apologizing for the photo, saying, “I am deeply sorry for the decision I made to appear as I did in this photo and for the hurt that decision caused then and now.”
