Leslie Jones--black women don't put their head under water

[Anonymous]

Leslie why did you have to end a very sweet interview with Katie Ledecky by saying that? It was so nice up until that point. Leslie showed kind and excited earnestness, and Katie showed graciousness and a lot of charm!

Ledecky was good with her response about a swim cap. It was fine.

Is this worth a thread?

This is OP, K.L. was poised, funny, and gracious the entire time. L.J. messed up the vibe at the end and embarrassed black women everywhere.

As a Black woman, Leslie did not embarrass me.

So you are happy that she made a unilateral decision to speak for black women?

She's a comedian you know.

The "we black people don't" tropes are played out.

Cringe commentary is Leslie Jones's career persona.

Seems like a set-up, honestly.

Agree. Katie doesn’t seem with it enough to come up with that response unless planned.

All she said was that is why I will have a swim cap for you. That is the most polite response to give. She did not dismiss, but did not make a big deal out of the "concern" express, she did not engage with Leslie's minstrel show, which was good on her.
