His comments touched more than a nerve with me, all I can say is baby you know I'm your ride or die chick and I got my pistol and blade, bring on the revolution!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-80750989989816543752006-11-22T19:40:00.000-06:002006-11-22T19:40:00.000-06:00I honestly don't know how to respond to his remark...I honestly don't know how to respond to his remarks. People say things when they are angry inside and I think he wanted those people to feel just as bad as he may have been feeling considering his career low. I don't know "Kramer" personally, so I can't say with certainty that he is a racist. But its apparent he doesn't know how to articulate his frustration; even when he is doing standup. Why the brothers were interupting him, I don't have the answer to that because the clip doesn't show all of that. That is/was rude. But it doesn't excuse the comments passed by the comedian. Black people have managed to turn the word "nigga" into an acceptable term of endearment, hatred, and certain types of identity. So we can't get mad when someone of another race directs it to us. The lynching part....ehhh....I think he dug deep on that one because somewhere along the way he knew the use of the word "nigga" wouldn't be enough to make those men feel his anger about what he may be experiencing in his life. The use of the word coupled with the action of thousands of senseless killings of black men touches a part in black people that I can't explain. I think its sad that all of that had to happen because even after a few day pass, nothing will change for the better on any scale of respect for the next individual.<br /><br />ShanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
