[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The AA pastor also made a racist joke about her Latina-sounding name.

This!!!!!! I can't believe ppl aren't mentioning the taco bell joke. What an awful man!!!![/quote]

But nobody will call out the racism. I wonder if AAs think it's funny? Do they not realize it's racist and offensive? Or do they only recognize racism that offends them? [/quote]

AA here and plenty of ppl I actually know don’t think it was funny. That minister is ignorant and offensive. However, you have to realize DCUM isn’t heavily populated with AA so what are you trying to gain with your questions and assumptions? Go find other AA and ask them if you are that concerned instead of posting on a forum with a heavy white voice. [/quote]

I'm not putting the onus solely on AAs. Whites, Asians, Indians, Hispanics, etc. could have pointed out the racist comment which was front and center in the linked clip. But it took several posts before anyone mentioned it. I think that's because people are less likely to call out racist comments unless they are made by whites. [/quote]

No, you specifically mentioned AA in your comment on a mostly white message board. Other white ppl have called out his behavior on this particular message board. You clearly are not speaking with other races or reading other sites bc plenty of AA have called this minister out in his behavior as soon as it happened. If you want to see more then read more.
