Im Native American. So, according to BET, it's ok for me to make jokes full of racist stereotypes about Native Americans?
I think not. Is it ok if I make jokes about white people because my wife is white? Again, I think not. Universally, racial jokes are never ok. Not innocent little nudge-nudge wink-wink jokes or full blown racist hate mongering. It's never ok and those that make those jokes, for whatever reason, should not be let off the hook.
