Default Re: Wtf? Racism debate on new Chapelle\'s show ep?

This episode was mediocre, but I actually don't mind the serious discussion. If there was a time to have it it's now, and the show deserves some sort of discussion anyway.

Can someone explain to a white guy why the word "badonkadonk" could possibly be considered racist, or at least inappropriate for white people to use?

It is slang of urban origin, some black people resent what they perceive as a mainstream, corporate co-option of their culture.

Honkytonk Badonkadonk by Trace Adkins Yeah, a country song w/ extra urban sass. I don't think it's racist, but it sure is wrong.

Got it goin' on
Like Donkey Kong
And ooo-wee
Shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law
Get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how she even get them britches on with that
That honky tonk badonkadonk
(Aww son)

Also, did anyone else hear the black chick say she thinks it's okay for Dave to tell a joke but she thinks it's racist for white guys to say "ba-donkadonk"? Last time I checked not being allowed to do or say certain things just because you are a certain race was called apartheid. Am I a racist for thinking that girl was a stupid bitch?

I wonder if it would blow her mind that by classifying what things people can do by race she is being racist as well?
