Chapelle took it upon himself to display racial stereotypes, by "putting yourself in someone else's shoes" through an extremely funny scenario. Oddly enough the Wetback family was cut off rom the youtube video I put.
He plays the double entendre using the 1950's American dream/oppresion duality of the era.
but this is a joke which should be understood if one has the intelligence and enlightenment to do so. [/sarcasm.]
If you think that someone who has been on the Inside the Actor's studio and asked to socially deconstruct a sketch for the benefit of the audiance would somehow come as bad taste humor, then you and I differ greatly in taste. | |

Never heard of Chappelle but have Googled him and see it more in context now.
Thought it was original stuff from the unenlightened Fifties (a bit like our British 70s stuff "Love thy Neighbour" (even though he's a nigga, etc)
With this background in racist British Comedy, anything is possible from a sketch......
so please excuse...........
