The state of racial commentary in comedy on television is dire. But, the web is a treasure trove of great racial satire. The mother of all race satire sites is called Black People Love Us. This site is purportedly run by a progressive, up-scale, white couple, who seeks to proclaim to the world their cosmopolitan status. It’s a great commentary on the tendency to confuse paternalism for acceptance. The comments section on this website is particularly fascinating. I don’t know where they got these actors, but I’d love to see them in a sitcom!

Another cool side I’ve come across is Stuff White People Like. Where’s the “Stuff Latinos Like”?

BTW….this is the best hip-hop track I’ve heard in a long time.
