How?


Agree. Katie doesnโ€™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.

Cringe commentary is Leslie Jones's career persona.

She's a comedian you know.


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

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?

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!
