If people are still making jokes over mundane things like race over the course of time they'll keep highlighting it instead of burying it. - The-Camper Sun, 29 Nov 2009 20:01:57 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-200 It's no "joke" when someone says laughter will bring people together. It just goes to show that we are all human fundamentally and that there is no such thing as race. - Laura Holt Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:01:03 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-199 I agree with Allison. As long as the person making the joke is of the race then it's ok. Remember when that idiot Kanye west made that "mutt joke?" till this day he hasn't apologized for it. I for one felt offended because he is a black person talking about mixed people in a derogatory way. I think it's natural to feel this way unless that person whoever it is is close to the community/race he is talking about. Eh maybe Eminem is a good example? He could probably come off with some black jokes... - Priscilla Sat, 28 Nov 2009 07:00:17 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-198 Comedians who use racism in their comedy are treading a thin line and they know it. One serious foul up and they could be called racist. Remember the guy last year who got called out for calling black cheerleaders a certain word? It's best to leave these types of comedy to members of a particular race and ironically and fortunately this is usually what does happen. Nice article this week. - Allison Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:28:33 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-197 "Why don't we feel unerved?" People live in the moment. - EdgeOfTheLake Fri, 27 Nov 2009 17:15:03 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-196 When people laugh to a common thing they have a good time. When they have a good time they relate and nothing else matters. That pretty much wraps it up. - Equally racist Fri, 27 Nov 2009 15:22:40 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-195 Carlos Mencia is bunk..Joe Rogan called him out ages ago and if I were to listen to a comedian it would be him. Mencia only talks about race because he doesn't got any material. That's besides the point but I felt that needed to be told...ha - Above the influence Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:59:22 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-193 Man those videos were hilarious! I do see the analogy you are trying to get readers to think about. At the same time when yuo think about it seriously it becomes a different meaning altogether. Laughter superceedes all so it's a good way to loosten up folks. Another thing if people are goign to make comedies abotu race they also need to include people who are in the majority (ie:white's) so it's fair all things said. I've seen dave chappelle do a lot of that and other comedians like that one whtie guy who does impressions of other people. He did bush and a wholel ist of others. - Hee-Larious Thu, 26 Nov 2009 11:38:52 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-192 Maybe the best way to tear down the walls of discrimination is to simply make it look like it has no room for seriousness in our society. - Gordon will survive Thu, 26 Nov 2009 09:58:17 +0100 http://blendedpeopleamerica.com/chameleon/november/78-racism-and-stereotyping-in-todays-films-and-comedy.html#comment-194 Has anyone here watched Emersed in twinkles? It's an austrian movie (they show it on sundance) and the moral of that movie reminds me of the moral of this particular chameleon release. Check it out if you haven't seen it yet. I recommend it. - Carol - Carol Thu, 26 Nov 2009 03:19:03 +0100
