I mean who are we if we can't laugh at ourselves and one another objectively? If anything I see it potentially bringing people together more. It might encourage people of all races to work together and to see an objective look at their own races. Be they black, white, brown, yellow, red, arab, islander, or mixed. People might become less sensitive and be more willing to open up to discussing these issues more objectively.
I agree. Although it can seem hard, the key is not to pretend that stereotyping doesn't exist, but to accept it when it does pop up. If we can laugh at ourselves and each other, then stereotypes won't hurt anymore. If we stigmatize the stereotypes, then people will just become more offended by them.
