F that. I watched Jimmy Kimmel since day 1. He's the only late night host who gave black musicians and actors a true platform. Spare me Fallon trotting out thr Roots to gain cool points

Even when Jimmy he goes on his yearly hiatus, he lets Arsenio host for an entire week, lets Anthony Anderson host a week, he let Snoop, etc. And no, it's not all Black hosts either.

The supposed blackface just got lumped in at a time when that was a hot button. Nobody made issue of it at the time bc it wasn't actually blackface.

This is not Blackface:

Even though Jimmy Kimmel is more black than Drake, that's still racist.
It's not racist. Usr your brain.

Blackface was a specific thing back those days characterized by overly black paint, overexagerated lips, make up around the eyes to make the white appear more prominently. On top of this the clothing, the voice, and the actions were all exaggerated

This was just a white dude dressed up in an NBA jersey as light-skinned Karl Malone. Go watch it.

This is nonsense. It's bigger than that.

Explain what's bigger than this:

I'm not going to waste my time arguing with someone who's not even Black.

Watch stuff for intent.

I'm the first one to call out racism. You're just saying a white person with ANY shade of makeup on is blackface.
If this is blackface then Dave Chappelle, Eddie, Martin, Druski etc should all be labeled as racist for donning white makeup.

The actual intent matters.

Never fails

Someone comes in missing the point (purposely) to derail the thread and argue.


Agents everywhere :unimpressed:
