Happy black history month!

This is an expensive joke. Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. never envisaged this kind of future, neither jokingly nor in seriousness.

Yes, I totally agree with you. However, expensive jokes are what move us forward. Being able to laugh at our dark past is what gives us a light future. Dave Chappelle was chastised for this type of humor. Did he stop? Should he stop? I think not. We need to look back and say "That was ridiculous. Why did we ever act like that?" In my experience, being apologetic means that you have a reason to be apologetic. Have a sense of humor. The people who made this picture definitely did.
