"We're more concerned about being called racists than we are about racism"

The guy acts racist to seem funny. The woman is actually racist.

“I can’t be racist, my shadow is black” is literally a joke making fun of people that say they they can’t be racist because they have black friends.

"You ordered the ribs. That's a weird first date meal to order." Savage.

Moral of the story: the guy isn’t racist because he made a racist joke, the girl is racist because she is.

When you’re black and laughed at the rib joke.

No-one's talking about it, but I actually thought one of the significant points they were making is how EXTREMELY agenda-driven her hypersensitivity is. She doesn't give a crap about jokes concerning Christianity--she just cares about "racist" jokes.

"That's racist." "We're going Dutch." Oh, the irony!

"Yeah, I'm not asking for money... Let that sink in a little bit." That was epic, and the delivery was flawless.

"I cant be racist, my shadows black" Bruh im DYING

WIN! As a black guy I loved the irony AND his jokes😂

Love this. It shows how a person can be racist without even knowing it.

Terrible “that’s what she said” joke

“I’m not asking for money, just let that sink in a little bit” 😂

She was just virtue signaling by acting offended at a relatively benign joke, and then proceeded to be terribly raciest to a black man right to his face

Dark humour is like food not everyone gets it

Plot twist : black guy was his wingman.

"I'm very sensitive to the topic of racism because the deeper I go into the discussion, the harder it is for me to hide my true thoughts."

"let that sink in a little bit." The best line in the movie.

I love the way he chalks up one last point for himself before walking away from her.

To the blonde girl, it was more important not to appear as a racist than being a racist. You can be a racist but just don't show it to others.

She is someone I don’t ever want to hang out with.

This illustrates the difference between what I call "performative wokeness" and actual human decency.

This is fantastic. Love how it ended so much.

I legit laughed when he said, "I can't be racist, my shadow is black". 😂😂😂 (I'M BLACK)

“I can’t be racist, my shadows black”, I’m black and that’s funny

"Excuse me maam, do you know the way to Rib City?"

Would be funny if the dining table actually turned XD

That dude was born to be an uncle

"I can't be racist, my shadow's black." - That's not even a racist joke. racIAL, sure, but not racIST.

“I can’t be racist, my shadows black.” HAHAHAHA!!!!!

"My shadow is black!" was funny as hell.

KZfaq has an interesting sense of timing when placing things on my recommended page

She was a bit over the top.. her real self came through in the end though..

Very, very, very good. Excellent writing. One of the best short films I have seen.

Simple, short, amd straight to the point. This was beautiful!

I laughed at that joke and I am black. here is a more racist one Q: how many policeman does it take to lit a bulb. A: none they just beat the room for being black.

“I don’t have any money” HE SAW HER WALK OUT OF A FANCY RESTAURANT

Excellent! Thank you!! Most people are not aware of their own prejudices!! Love from Germany

Brilliant observation and also a great example of show rather than tell in the storytelling. Loved it.

"I'm sensitive to that topic." *Black guy tries to ask her a question* "Sorry I don"t have any money."

She laughed at a sexist joke that was actually insulting her and was a Karen when it is about black people and then turns out to be racist wtf

"Ribs are a weird first date meal." I didn't know there was such a thing, rofl.

Ending made me happy 😂

She saw a black guy and assumed he was a beggar. That makes her the true racist so the tables really were turned.

stop hating on the actor, she's just acting from the script.

To the script writer - point well made.

She has the right to her opinion. People need to respect people's boundaries

dark humor is just like clean water, not everyone in the world gets it

Oh my god that ending was the most satisfying thing I have ever seen

This video, and some of the comments, brings back a memory of something that happened a couple decades ago when my parents and I were at a train station near Washington, DC. We were waiting for a train but weren't sure whether a particular one would take us where we wanted to go. There was a black woman, perhaps 50 years ago, sitting and waiting for the train. My father asked this woman if the train went to that area, and the woman answered him with the information. However, my father was so "apologetic" about asking her ("sorry to disturb you"), and said so before asking and then afterward, acting as if he had asked the president, queen or pope. I felt so embarrassed, thinking this was not Mississippi in the 1950s in that some "social norm" had been violated. I almost wanted to apologize to the woman, saying that my father, who was perhaps 70 at the time, grew up in a different era, but realized doing so would awkward and would make it worse.

Love this channel always impressed by the depth the writing and acting takes. Her cutting him off and assuming he wanted money... questionably racism in my eyes. I think anyone would assume someone saying “excuse me” as you come out of a downtown restaurant is either selling something or asking for money. You should give people a chance to speak tho before cutting them off multiple times. That’s where I started to think she wasn’t so just after all

"I can't be racist, my shadow is black" was actually pretty good😂 I wouldn't consider it racist though, because it's commenting on the stupidity of white people saying they know a black person so they can't he racist. I thought it was kinda clever

Side moral of the story: some people like to talk about themselves in a way that is all good, and even believe it themselves, but when it comes to practicality, no one is immune to prejudice.

If a Jew tells a Jew joke, we laugh. Have to, unless you want to accuse them of oppressing themselves. A non-Jew tells the same joke and it is instantly branded oppression. And as for this guy, he should consider himself lucky he found out now. It only cost him one evening.

I'm not racist the children in my basement are black

Depending on how you look at it, this skit can be interpreted in a number of ways: 1. Actions speak louder than words: the woman was indignant over racist jokes yet showed that she was racially biased towards a black person. 2. Everyone has a little bit of racism. We end up absorbing it because it's all around us, and it can either manifest in racial jokes or in snap judgments based in race. 3. Humour is a great way to test compatibility with people. The guy's jokes may have been based on racial stereotypes, but the night would have gone very differently if she had laughed along. 4. Everyone is a little messy, so don't be quick to dismiss people. Yes, the guy could have told better jokes but the bad jokes don't make him a bad person. Similarly, the black guy could have been dressed better but bad clothes don't make him homeless. It's better to take a moment to think about things than jump to conclusions. Anyway, this was a good thought-provoking piece. Well done.

OMG The ending is just!

I'm black and I'm not offended by these jokes at all. I actually got a good laugh. Lol

my homie definitely dodged a bullet right there

aight. sexist joke? "LOOOOL" racist joke: "ha... ha..."

No one who tells jokes will ever say "I like that you're sensitive"

So on point. Nowadays it sometimes seems that political trends and being always absolutley correct in everything we say is more important then real people. It surely is a part of it but it should not be used to profile yourself but to help anf inform in a good way.

I am black and I laughed at both of his Black jokes.

She is exactly the kind of person Malcolm X tried to warn his brothers about.

At the very latest, she should have walked out at "my shadow's black."

Wow... I love the "miss" and hat tip he gave her...

"We're going Dutch" Me, a dutch person: That's racisme

“I can’t be racist, my shadow is black!” Now that was funny and not racist. He was making fun of people who do / say racist things that they try to rationalize it by saying oh no am not racist I have several black friends! Edit: Wow this comment blew up. I never get likes my highest ever was 5

That’s a weird first date meal to order

The black dude should have rebuked her by looking at the other guy and asking "excuse me, do you have any alms for the blonde?" Mic drop.

It seems the blonde woman is the racist one here. She felt guilty over the joke because she actually believes them , whereas the guy knew it's a stereotype.

“I’m sensitive about this”- is white.

“I can’t be racist, my shadows black” yooooo 🤣 I’m weak

some people are so sensitive. watch till the end. this just may be my favorite short film

“I am morally superior because I take joke seriously!”

Ugh she looks like a dollar store Amy Schumer

I didn't know us eating ribs was even a stereotype lol??

Wow wow wow such a thoughtful climax and an excellent message on what we think of others without correcting ourselves first

Is this amy schumer

"I can't be racist, my shadow is black" I'll use that in future.

Who orders ribs on a first date? Me, every date

This is hands down my favourite Omeleto short film! 😂😂

*Makes insulting jokes about priests and religion.* "Haha!" *Makes joke on racism.* "That's not funny, we're through."

It's funny because sometimes trying too hard not to be racist is actually racist. A perfect example is the Dean from Community

As a black person, I will say that if you try and take a rib off my plate, it'll be the last thing you do with two hands 🤷🏽‍♀️

When he said " something tells me we're on the same page here", he was very accurate

imagine her reaction if he was gonna say a "fat girl " joke

funny thing is, he was joking. she wasnt

oh boy, this is such a good one!

The main story of this film is that do not take everything so seriously especially when it comes to racist jokes.

I think there’s a difference between a racial joke and a racist joke.

Immediately thinks the black guy on the streets is homeless.

Was this video made 6 years ago? Really!? Super current with the present... brilliant!

This is so good! What do you guys think about stereotyping and joking about race? Is it actually offensive? Or should the context of the joke be taken into consideration?

Now she's the real racist.. That was horrible the way she judged him..

Real moral: Everyone sucks in their own way.

I've gotta admit, that Christmas tree & priest joke had me in stitches! 🤣 I didn't get the rib one though. Straight over my head. That part at the end, outside, I could FEEL that woman's embarrassment! She must have wanted the ground to open up & swallow her! 😳

So, what is wrong with racist jokes? In this example people would complain about the "rib joke" but I have never heard anyone complain about "long genitals" racist jokes even if they are more racist than the "rib joke", precisely because it casts the "joked race" in an advantageous position. If anyone wants to be genuine he has to accept all or dismiss all and not just go "case per case" as his/her interest. As for racism, what is it? In the end there is no greater racism than a mother's love for her own kids. The thing is that we have to accept the fact that even newborns are racist, extremely racist : they turn around and they recognize familiar faces while they turn away from unknown faces. When family members are not around they, statistically, tend to turn towards faces of the same race, not from others, precisely because it is all about an innate biological survival mechanism : people of other races are more prone to kill the baby than people of the same race. So racism is biological. We need to accept it as it. What we can't accept is rudeness, bad behaviour and expressions of disdain to fellow human beings just because they happen to be of another race. And in this, what I can tell you is that the very people that find racism everywhere are quite very commonly the most racist in the most critical of circumstances (e.g. workplace etc.) while those accused of racism quite often show a humane face towards the very people they openly say they would like to avoid, driven by a sense of justice.
