You know, I did just learn something... I had NO knowledge of why or what the “watermelon” reference was all about. I had always figured that watermelon came form a warm-climate = southern states and the southern states have a larger AA community = AA like watermelon...
I knew it was a generalization or stereotype, I…

AGREED!!! And especially when you consider their age, the education they would have received, the general ‘awareness’ that that age group has, etc. etc. etc.
And for them to make the post, where they acknowledge MLK-Day, but supposedly don’t make the connection to them being in basically blackface. I figure it this…

I enjoy your writing style, and usually the overall content, but sometimes I feel you write based purely on which story will garner the most outrage.

The fact is, the ENTIRE polling-industry had their shame was on display for all to see in the lead-up to the election. I know there are still a lot of angry folks out…

Maybe this this is the EXACT reason why he belongs in the National Museum of African American History...
<Disclaimer: I don't know the "stated purpose" of the Museum>
But most Museums show the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of a subject matter. He is an accomplished member of African American history, maybe a bad example,…

I love you too...

Ok... But you did. You implied he used Mean-Spirited humor... And you stated that “mean-spirited humor is the tool of bullies”.
If you had said insensitive humor was the tool of out-of-touch older comics, would one not think you’d be saying Steve Harvey is out-of-touch and Older aged?

Fine, we need to ‘improve’ our filters regarding “Legacy Humor”, but to suggest that Steve Harvey is a ‘Bully” made my mouth-open and eye-brows go up. That is a leap that is unfair, overly simplistic and a generalization that elevates a “bad joke” into defining a morale-honesty Individual to that of “social pariah”

Well, if you read your own article, doesn’t it imply in the last paragraph that Sheriff Cogen is really the ‘offender’ here in False Arrest and False Imprisonment?
I mean when you “Slip on Ice” in-front of a building you sue the Building Owner, the building Lessor, Lessee, Management Company and Employee but at the…

It seems a little hypocritical to freely post unsubstantiated, salacious and fairly ridiculous accusations about the President-Elect.

Obviously this article touches on a very “emotional” topic, I did feel like you were a little all-over-the-place.
While statistics show that, sadly, many more AF are sentenced to Death than others, I think that THIS is what needs resolution... You don’t blame the “Sentence” but blame the “Sentencers/Lawyers/Judges”...
T…

I don’t think the “double standard” is a concern here... If a Black actor can apply “face make-up” to make him/her look White for the purpose of a Job, Skit, Commercial, etc. what do I care.
The other scenario though, just doesn’t “feel” right. Historically White’s that have gone into Black-Face have done so to ‘mock’…

So maybe I am not a great ‘reader’ of the “implied” message, but please explain how you are disparaging the response of the Fox Community (and others) that responded by adding over $200,000 to a Group of Kids wanting to participate in something historic?
And as you all claim, that Angry White Men are the only ones who…

Hate on Donald Trump all ya’ want. But had he clarified his tweet by saying “in the last 8yrs Lewis has been all Talk,Talk,Talk” and it would be accurate. His jurisdiction has NOT done well over the last 8yrs, in almost ever metric measured.

What a Flippin’ joke. I can’t believe someone would have the gault to “think that” let alone write it on the receipt. Really confused.
You know, it just escapes me and every attempt that I tried to understand it.
You know that it is going to cause a “sh*t storm”. The offended Woman would probably let it…

Ouch... You guys are ‘harsh’... Steve Harvey, as far as I know, had his starts as a Stand-Up Comic. These guys say things that make the Crowd moan every so often.
I think the guy is amazing, funny, quick-witted, thoughtful and generally a really GOOD person who cares about those around him and the state of disrepair…
