13239796, Black folks have a tough time with this type of comedy

In a fair & just world, it would be alright for comedians to make faces, act silly and do dumb stuff.

But in America, all of those things were used to stereotype us and keep us down. So black comedians have to be careful about how they do that type of comedy.

It's unfair and it impedes the kinds of comedy that black folks can do. But I understand.
