Sometimes I wonder why my white friends always seem to find these videos that make black folks seem like bloody retards.

Not to black folks, mind you. See, we look at other black folks and we don't see black folks. We just see folks. Some folks are real characters.

Y'all, though - I dunno. If my liberal sensitivities were fragile, I probably wouldn't test them by delighting in stereotypes.

That, or I'd try to find videos that find balance.

I guess buffoonery is like the mafia. Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in.

I see your point. I do. And there have certainly been more of these video "remixes" of black folks on the interwebz. But I guess I don't think these always paint people as retards --just the characters they are. I think one can appreciate characters without looking down upon them.

Sure, that's YOU. My experience is, when white folks laugh at black buffoonery, I can’t be certain that said white folks aren’t willing to see me as a potential buffoon. It’s been my experience that, as soon as white folks get comfortable with black folks, they recall that crass humor and direct it at us.

I was in a golf manufacturer's workshop in Austin last week with 6 strangers from different parts of the world. I was learning about advanced techniques in equipment fitting and club making. By day 2, the Americans all had black jokes. "Gee Danny...with those safety glasses on, you look like you're ready to go hang with your homies." Day 3, The guy directing a particular portion of the class asked me to demonstrate something and says, "Okay Danny...if we could just get you to put on your pimp glasses..." Neither one of these cats knew me from Denzel. Just brazen. That's when I had to shut it down.

You stop by my crib one morning while my daughters are visiting and, say, see one of them with a scarf on her head, I gotta wonder if you're recalling that sister above. See what I'm sayin'.

I'm old school like that. You can't let a white boy get too comfortable with you. Feelings start getting hurt.

Didn't mean to drag you in. I was remembering a similar exchange we had here the last time a viral video of this type was posted. This conversation built on that theme,yet more in my mind and less on the page. My bad.

no it's cool.. i often think about these things.. some shit is so funny that it's hard not to post but i normally restrain the urges after i consider how others might see it.

while we're on all this openness, i do think you come at white liberals waaaay too hard.

I kick the tires and it's my fault the doors fall off?

I can't help that a lot of people think being vegetarian, voting Obama and supporting marijuana legalization and marriage equality absolves them of their hipster bigotry and unmindful bias against black people.
