I look at that and think Arsenio had a specific person in mind when he created that character or else wanted a shortcut to indicate he was playing a different role from the other character he was playing in the film. But really, he’s black and he’s not mocking black people so it’s apples and oranges. He’s playing a

It would be a Will Smith impersonation if he was in a black suit with shades or in this case if he just wore the costume Will Smith’s character had and assumed the pose from the poster. Painting his skin darker to imitate a black person serves no purpose. It’s a Focus ad. You’re copying the key art. We get that you’re

I’m not going to paint my skin white to impersonate John Wayne. I’m not going to pull at the corners of my eyes to impersonate Bruce Lee.

“Oh, sorry. Did you not want me to call your mom a cunt? In my culture there’s no history of that word being offensive so...”

I hear you, though my view is that anyone who isn’t black darkening their skin, whatever the intent, makes it blackface and, in my experience, any person of color painting themselves white, whatever the rationale, is satirical.

You’re conflating blackface, which is a discrete entity unto itself with its own specific historicity & context, with a black comedian satirizing a white male dominated American culture.

"I will stand in front of this school house door for as long as it takes."

Famous for being related to someone who was famous for doing nothing; now more famous for being someone who does nothing for a living.

I've never wanted to be Robert Pattinson until this moment and now I want to be Robert Pattinson more than anything else in the world.

"Hello, Computer."

"Y'all ain't about to white guilt me out this check. Miss me with all that!"

They are all that's keeping me from assuming my ultimate form and blasting this shitrock into the sun.

Sexy is definitely an intangible because she's huge but I so would. Not that she'd have me but still.

"This has nothing to do with race." - some white guy in 3...2...

I love it when politician's stage-managed, home game efforts at appearing relateable and folksy just make them come off as fake douchelords.

"Of course, job security is a pipe dream for most people anyway"

When I played, I was too busy focusing on the giant monster and neglected the prompt. D'oh. In my game, Claire grabs the gun and manages to save herself. Unfortunately, this appears to be what determines if you experience the "good" or "bad" ending, and it's a load of bullshit. I'm punished with a crappy outcome

"As a white person, I just can't imagine being invited to speak publicly on that topic and actually believe that my opinion is one that needs to be heard." -says, well basically, just you.

The answer is and ever will be for white people to stop being racist instead of rappers not saying "nigger".

This guy seems like he's got a lot of reasonable, measured things to say on the subject of race.
