It’s totally cool if you like, or even love, Leslie Jones.
What’s not cool is thinking that those of us who don’t love her, or think she is well suited to be the new host of The Daily Show have this opinion because we are racist.
Here is a list of black, female comedians–all who worked for The Daily Show, The Nightly Show, or The Opposition–and can deliver comedy without YELLING EVERY LINE OF DIALOGUE.
- Dulce Sloan - TDS
- Jessica Williams - TDS
- Franchesca Ramsey - TNS
- Robin Thede - TNS
- Holly Walker - TNS
- Niccole Thurman - TO
I think the racist thing is attaching the yelling to her being black, which you’ve done in the title of the post.
Perfectly fine not to enjoy her style.
Stop that
