A little but late, but slay.

Hmm took them a but but it felt unnecessary on a night to fight for more diversity.

I don't see what the issue was with the 1 asian skit...

Expose the blatant hypocrisy that Chris showed

is it that deep though? i dont think he thought about it that much

It's a great point!

Plus, in most of these #OscarsSoWhite discussions, there was never any focus on Asian, Hispanic, or Middle Eastern actors being underrepresented. Asians make up a huge part of the world's population, but hardly ever get cast in major roles and even less often get nominated for acting awards.

ikr??? the absolute ****ing nerve!

Gather his racist ass together.

Good for them. I understand Chris is a comedian, but that was definitely not the time or place for any kind of race baiting jokes. He should have known that.

It really isn't. Being labeled "smart" and "hardworking" is hardly anything to complain about. Not to mention Chris Rock was equally offensive in his "racism".

And why do people continue to hold onto this lie that black people aren't mentioning other races? There were plenty mentioned during the Oscars, and before it and after it. Always trying to attack and blame black people.

you have got to be kidding me. are you even Asian?

A little

Your opinion doesn't matter. All the Asians who were offended by this, (which was countless, including many members here - even some posting in this thread), their opinions count. So don't even.

This.

I can see how THIS could be annoying. I have too many Asian friends, with varying degrees intelligence and work ethics to know not be ignorant enough to assume all are geniuses. But what you said is true. But there are worse things to be assumed about oneself. Especially being black or Latino.

I don't really care if you think my opinion matters. I have the right to voice it. I don't think this was anything to be offended by. He attacked EVERYONE, and by the end of the night almost every race was insulted in degree. Should the Academy issue apologies to them as well? Do you see anyone else demanding an apology? No. Because you know what you are getting with Chris Rock. He is provocative and has always used race as a means as getting a laugh. He means no harm in the end.

Exactly. It's annoying how all black people get attacked for something ONE person did.
