Twice.

Interestingly enough, I too did brown-face, only once, in the early 90s to a Halloween party with many University students. Two of my East-Indian-Canadian best friends and their families helped me wear the proper Sikh outfit and turban. Everyone thought it was fun/funny and not an issue. I helped Bob (one of the Sikhs) dress as a First Nations like in Dances With Wolves, and even on non-costume days he normally looks very Native American rather than his actual Asian Indian heritage. Good times.
