[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I'm asking is to whom is this anger over the video directed?  Most white PPs aren't angry; they think his sense of humor actually helps to get across a major point.  Black PPs, however (most), find the entire story offensive - from the actual trip to the taping to the posting to the "reviews."

So who's to blame for causing this uproar?  Are you upset over the whites' reactions?  over the fact that some blacks also think it's funny?

It happened. The school was stupid to allow such an event to take place (And who knows if we have all the info either?).  The young man used his humor to get back at the school/teacher.  He drew in quite a few "fans" who were also offended by it.  [/quote]

It seems there's only one acceptable way for people from a historically oppressed group to retell of their experiences.  No humor allowed - at least nothing white people find funny.  What about mixed race people is it okay for them to laugh?  Whose rules are they required to follow?  The black community or their other communities?[/quote]
