Being Black is being a Comedian?

While I was watching CSI marathon on SPIKE channel, I found this commercial from time warners cable.  It is a commercial promoting Black Comedy.  I found it very interesting in the beginning because the commercial started with couple black drops of ink and it slips, while it slips there’re Black comedy shows previewing.  Time Warners wanted to promote the Black Comedy to the audience, saying Black people produces a lot of comedy throughout our history.

I found this commercial pretty racist, because the message they have sent me is that Black people is always a joke throughout American history.  I know there are a lot of racist actions and times throughout the history.  We watched Beulah in class, which is an African American women, act as a maid.  Her role made the audience laughs.  There was a movie clip which a white person put black stuff on his face so he could be a Black person and sing.  These things concluded to an issue, Black people are funny and they a joke.

Why does people not like African American?  Is it mainly because they have a Black skin color?  They do not have a choice of what color they born with , and I think people should not make fun of them and think they’re comedians because they are different looking and have a different skin color.

I tried to find the commercial on youtube but it wasn’t on. I will try to upload this post with the commercial once it’s out.
