the joke in the sketch was that black face IS OFFENSIVE, the punchline being that sarah silverman's character was very naive. every joke on the show was based on her being very immature and naive. its was only funny because her character didnt "get" that it was offensive. c'mon. in the episode her and a black guy debate who had it harder, Jews (herself) or black people (him), so they "switch places". she dressed in blackface and he dressed as a stereotypical orthodox Jew. black face was considered taboo and offensive in 2007 when this was made. the only thing that changed is people being outraged by everything. in 2007 people felt comedy didnt have to follow the same social rules as society, no topic was off the table, it depended on the context. there is no more room for context, there is no nuance in entertainment anymore.
dave chappell's show featured MANY racial stereotypes, and "white face". he also did a sketch where he, a black guy was a blind KKK member. the context mattered, obviously dave chappell isnt a KKK supporter and neither was sarah silverman racist

Times were different years ago. Just because something is "taboo" now, doesn't mean it always was.

You're saying that if a movie was made about white female police officers dressed up as black women doing a sting operation in Chicago would be racist?hockeymom87 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 9:05 amNot to mention the movie white chicks.

Sure but white chicks had black men dressing up like white women so a remake would need white men dressing like black women. Unless they gender swapped it and had women dress like men.CockatooCrazyColt529 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 9:55 amYou're saying that if a movie was made about white female police officers dressed up as black women doing a sting operation in Chicago would be racist?hockeymom87 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 9:05 amNot to mention the movie white chicks.
