Two weeks ago, Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx made national headlines when he called President Obama "Our lord and savior."
While hosting NBC's Saturday Night Live this weekend, Foxx joked about how in his new film "Django Unchained," "I kill all the white people in the movie. How great is that?" (video follows with transcript and commentary):
JAMIE FOXX: My name is Jamie Foxx. Give it up, give it up, New York City, Saturday Night Live. Come on, make some noise, man. New York City, New York City, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens, it’s crazy. I'm black, and I’m dressed all black cause it's good to be black. Black is the new white. I’m telling you, how black is this right here? Nice fly, I’m saying. You know how I know black is in right now? Cause the Nets moved to Brooklyn. How black is that? They got black jerseys, black court. I mean, how black is that? And Jay-z is the owner, a rapper. How black is that? And Jay-z only own about this much of the team. But he act like he own all of New York. How black is that?
And I got a movie coming out, "Django," check it out. Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson. “Django Unchained” I play a slave. How black is that? And in the movie I had to wear chains. How whack is that? But don't be worried about it because I get out the chains, I get free, I save my wife, and I kill all the white people in the movie. How great is that? And how black is that?
But I'm going to tell you right now, speaking of blackness, my President, President Obama is back up in the White House four more years. How black is that? And not only that, he’s so black, he was playing basketball during the Election Day. How black is that? But he was also late for his acceptance speech. Okay, all the white people, this is your turn - how black is that?
But he going to be extra black this next four years. He going to get everything black, and white people, don't get nervous about that because he is mixed. Now the first four years was the white side of him, because I don't know if you saw him on Ellen when he was dancing and everything. I don't know what this is. That wasn't President Obama, that was President Barry Gibb Obama. But the next four years he's even changing his name from to President Barack Dikembe Mutombo Tupac Mandela Hussein Obama X. How black is that? And the next time you see him dancing on Ellen, he gonna be dancing like this.
How does it help race relations in this country when a black actor jokes on national television about killing white people?
One has to believe that his opening monologue was approved by SNL's writers, meaning they were in on it.
Imagine the uproar if a white actor joked about killing all the black people in a new film he was starring in.
That would probably be the end of his career.
By contrast, for Foxx, this will probably win him another Oscar.
It's a grave new world isn't it?

THIS is entertainment? It’s foaming at the mouth by a racist piece of garbage.
Also look at most of these boys wives lots are white women that kiss their butts or do more than that if you are Kim Kardashion..
I feel that most will die trying that stunt. Shooting a glock at a fellow dirtbag at 10 feet holding it sideways and facing down some of us clingers with our weapon of choice is not the same thing. That is if they can get it out of their baggy pants.
As I recall, that little land grab worked out perfectly. A strongman took over the economy, gave his tribesmen and relatives all the land formerly worked by damnable white folk, and the former exporter of produce became a massive recipient of U.N. and U.S. aid. As an added benefit, tribal warfare, formerly held in sustainable check, became the historic norm once again.
I think that the situation would be a bit different in a United Stated denuded of white influence. I do not believe that the huge migration of Latin Americans would take kindly to or be tolerant of Black tribal governance. I will take a wild, uneducated guess that the Latino/ Hispanic influx would gently persuade our Black brothers and sisters to move on, move out, or learn Spanish (with the provision that work or live in abject, life-ending poverty is their new paradigm.)
The fact that he said this doesn’t bother me half so much as the fact that the audience (probably largely white people) cheered and applauded. Let’s face it, even while they’re being killed, hauled away, their property stolen, etc., many whites will be cheering, groveling, or begging forgiveness.
I refuse to watch any movie that demonizes Confederates or Confederate sympathizers, so, not on my list.

Foxx is helping to reinforce the notion that actors - along with pro athletes - are among the dumbest humans on the planet. But maybe not as dumb as those who help make them among the highest paid as well.
Except for loose Armenian foxes with large American breasts.
The thing is...they’re not really joking about this. It’s on their minds, and every so often it slips out.
Quentin Tarantino and the Weinsteins let you kill some white folks, eh Jamie? You a good boy!

Great, then he could live in one of the many black-created paradises famous throughout history. No whites, no white inventions-good times had by all.
If not going to a movie because a black actor demeans whites or revises history by having the black character play a white historical figure or by having one of those creations as mythical as the unicorn in it-the magic negro-save humanity—is all it takes to make one racist, then I’ve been racist for years. But I actually have better reasons than that for supporting the continued good health and survival of my race, whites, which is all it takes to be a racist these days.
Yep. And “conservatives” will figure among them.
His parents did not give him that name. They gave him the name Eric Marlon Bishop. Just like Redd, Jamie Foxx is a fake name.
Has legalized alcohol corrupted our youth?
It’s worse than I though, He/She really is conflicted.
I saw ‘Django Unchained’ and it sucked.
I don’t know why Leonardo DiCaprio is so highly praised because he is such an average actor. You can tell he is acting. He is not the great actor he’s made out to be.
