"What do you think of this Chris Rock quote?"

When we talk about race relations in America or racial progress, it's all nonsense. There are no race relations. White people were crazy. Now they're not as crazy. To say that black people have made progress would be to say they deserve what happened to them before…

So, to say Obama is progress is saying that he's the first black person that is qualified to be president. That's not black progress. That's white progress. There's been black people qualified to be president for hundreds of years. If you saw Tina Turner and Ike having a lovely breakfast over there, would you say their relationship's improved? Some people would. But a smart person would go, "Oh, he stopped punching her in the face." It's not up to her. Ike and Tina Turner’s relationship has nothing to do with Tina Turner. Nothing. It just doesn't. The question is, you know, my kids are smart, educated, beautiful, polite children. There have been smart, educated, beautiful, polite black children for hundreds of years. The advantage that my children have is that my children are encountering the nicest white people that America has ever produced. Let's hope America keeps producing nicer white people.

This. Shit. Right. HERE....

Makes me want to watch the Oscars.

Unapologetically BLACK History Month continues...with Chris Rock going IN at the Oscars.

I'm just wondering if he's going to say something to get his ass thrown off the air. Probably not, but I guarantee he's going to say something to have white people protesting the next day. And for that...I'm dvr'ing that ish right now!!!!! 😎✊🏿

The Ike/Tina analogy is outstanding.
