Before I watch==my guess will be: blacks blacking. Or women womening.

Interesting how all our problems today seem to have a root in white supremacy. Even seemingly unrelated stuff.

Racism eats away at our country like a deeply-embedded cancer. It underpins every aspect of our society, and it's not just a tumor in its sac; its so diffuse and its roots are simultaneously deep and widespread. You can't just cut out the visible tumor; you have to irradiate it and kill it off via chemotherapy.

Whether this person is or isn't correct, can we please not equate comics and serious social scientists? If they really look that much alike, that probably is a serious problem, but one for another discussion.

Nice work.

Reminds me of the long-form stuff that John Oliver is doing. No ads make this possible: by not having to break for commercial, as Jon Stewart had to do, gives the breathing space to drill down for a long solid expository rant.

Please wait...
