Every since the whole Racial Dolezal thing came out this song has been going through my head and I've been laughing.
If you are offended by, say, The Jerk, please do not listen to this song.
You've been warned.
Hey, KAJ is down with Rachel Dolezal identifying as black, so give it a rest all you tight-assed whi' people.
Liberals always get a pass for saying racial stuff. Lenny Bruce is lionized by NPR at least once a year, Ted Danson is famously defended by Whoopi Goldberg, etc. It's all very clever, you know, social commentary when liberals get racial. It's not insensitive at all.
If President Obama can pick which race he will "identify" with, it's only a half step more to Rachael Dolezal.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the most amazing thing is, if you listen to that summary of Reed’s video, it sure sounds like he’s leading his people in a Benedict Option direction: towards joyfully embracing exile and counterculture status. This is encouraging!
Sorry, for a moment there I obviously confused Russell Moore joyfully embracing exile and counterculture status with Lou Reed joyfully embracing exile and counterculture status.
