The W. Kamau Bell Curve: Ending Racism in About an Hour (1)

[yankee22167]

Ok, I never met a african american that assimilation to white culture I didnt like.....I dont like the whole hip-hip, pants down to your knees, gangster bullshit......black culture and norms are bankrupt and morally broke....unless you want to be a hip hop star or someone ass bitch in prison-It wont get you far. If you think african are just advance thinking people-go to africa and see. They are never going into space, and their not going to cure cancer....just facts people

[wkbonline]

@yankee22167 I'm sorry, but I missed the facts" part of your post. Could you please leave the sources that you are citing so I can check them out, too? Thanks!

[oats3mta3]

forward = straight, black = nigger...can you see how changing the word doesn't matter?

I heard you bully Marc Maron on WTF and it got me curious to check you out a little more and I have come to the conclusion that you believe because you have a sharp tongue that what you say has to be correct.

You're arguments are never going to hold water b/c you are blinded by your hatred for everything and that's too bad b/c you have a lot of passion.

[wkbonline]

@oats3mta3 You heard me "bully Marc Maron"? You are crazypotamus! You clearly know very little about Marc or how he works or the fact that we were kidding and you certainly haven't figured me out correctly. I think you should probably hang out with more angry people so you can see that I don't qualify as being blinded by my hatred. I guess me and you just feel bad for each other which means as the sage Dave Mason says, "We just disagree!"

[wkbonline]

@oats3mta3 Oops! I forgot to say thank you for saying that my tongue is sharp. No one has ever told me that before. Pretty cool to hear it put that way. :-)

[NaturalGrace]

This guy might be a good activist, but he's just not funny. Sorry.

[wkbonline]

@NaturalGrace Actually I'm a pretty shitty activist in that I'm not one at all so hopefully I have friends and family who love me, because otherwise there's nothing left for me. And you don't have to apologize. You are allowed to have your own thoughts. Be proud if your free will! As Marcus Garvey said, "Up! Up, you mighty race! You shall accomplish what you will!"

[judasishmael]

As a white person, I have had as many problems with people with less melanin moved skin, if not more...thus, if I were racist, it would be against the pale faces. Which is stupid. Racism has no place in one's life unless one actually believes that the level of melanin in one has any bearing on one's ability to be a person.

[complitdave]

Kamau is brilliant, funny, and very tall. Thank you!

[wkbonline]

@complitdave THANK YOU!!!!

[gunsandbullhorns]

Okay. I was pissed-off at this guy for calling Rand Paul a Racist, but he seems like a good comedian. He's local and he made me laugh, so I don't hate him anymore.

[wkbonline]

@gunsandbullhorns WHEW!

[pillagerromanman]

If and when this gets on Itunes i'll buy it for sure.

[atlien991]

The politics are shaky.

1) The Imus piece is on point.

2) The Tiger stuff is weak. The gripes about political correctness as a problem are right in line with white how white supremacists feel.

3) We're all racists? Racism is a system, not a person. When have Black or Native or Latinos systematically disfranchised any white population? Junk politics.

His timing is good. But his politics aren't sharp enough for prime time. However they are sharp enough for most white liberals.

c'est la vie.

[wkbonline]

@atlien991 So you are saying that there other comedians doing a better job of this on prime time? What would be your advice to him if you could talk to him?

[jstolesomething]

@atlien991 I dunno. I don't think you can separate racism from the human element.

Bell, I wouldn't say you quite hit the nail on the head, but I think you're onto something here with this routine.

[wkbonline]

@jstolesomething Thanks! And remember, just because I didn't hit YOUR nail on its nail head, doesn't mean that I'm not hitting other people's on theirs. Maybe I wasn't even aiming at yours. :-)

[jstolesomething]

@wkbonline A valid point. In any case, I appreciate the message you're trying to convey with your routines.

[atlien991]

Whack.

[wkbonline]

@atlien991 Why do you think it is whack? Constructive feedback is always helpful.

[hewhowalksthearth]

one word.whack!

[wkbonline]

Very good! Much better this time! I'm proud of you!

[jakefree25]

Isn't Kamau Kambon the one who said they should kill the white race?

[wkbonline]

I'm not an expert in everyone named "Kamau". Are you an expert in people named "Jake"?

[jakefree25]

See /watch?v=CMOkDOXAovQ&feature=r­elated

[wkbonline]

In this country, certainly "Kamau" is more unusual than "Jake" but not in others.

And yes, you found the clip of the another "Kamau", I guess I don't understand the point you are making.

But congratulations. You now know of two people named "Kamau."

[jakefree25]

Well you should listen to his rant, real pleasant

I guess in America there aren't too many Kamaus. If this was Russia, both Jake and Kamau would be rare but there would be a lot of Ivans and Vasilys

[robtran]

Hilarious and insightful, as always!!

[linomgutierrez]

oh alright.

[wkbonline]

No problem.

Sometimes, it's hard to communicate over the Internet with people that you don't know. Tthings can get misinterpreted.

You know?

[linomgutierrez]

I'm not sure what you mean.

[wkbonline]

Sorry about the confusion.

I was trying to say that I agree with you.

[linomgutierrez]

that nigga ain't even funny

[wkbonline]

You ain't ever lied!

[wkbonline]

Mmmmmmmmmmm baby, it's cute when you get all white supremacist on me. Now go tell your parents that you are sorry to be such a disappointment.

[nomodram99]

much respect kamau...

[pmariel]

Nice work! Congrats on the SF Weekly award -- well-deserved!

[symmetricmedia]

Excellent video I must say! The editing is superb!

[BreakaLegTV]

Great job, Kamau!!

[LadyGriot]

Great, you're getting better all the time!

Keep it going!

[inouyde]

Hmm... out of our mouths, but not the feeling in our hearts. Sounds like job for The Racorcist (cue "Tubular Bells")

[moregravyplease]

You are really great and very funny. I loved the 'pc acid reflux' thing, it is so true. I hope that you keep up the good work.

[wkbonline]

Thanks. I really appreciate the support and feedback.
