Hey I like laughing at stereotypes. Just make it obvious that you're not serious. IF some one still takes offense, they prolly deserve it being stuck up punks!In da butt.

The joke is offensive and stereotypical-so I can understand how the TA's and prof got pissed at the absolute moron who writes this sort of thing down in an exam- but the TA was wrong in saying racism is decided by the person who hears a comment.If you don't like reality, change it! me

Whatever answer you give, I could say that you are racist for assuming that your answer is more likely to perform bunga bunga than another race."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Give me a freaking break: ANYONE here who says they imagined these "savages" as caucasians when reading the joke is a damned liar.
If I were to write:
So amos came and said "sure thing massa, i's going to get the food right now for ya'll" You certainly would assume Amos to be white, right? Cause these are all common white stereotypes, correct?
Give me a ****ing break: stereotypes are built on a common cultural heritage- a given set of assumptions that allow the stereotypes to work, and NO< they do not have to be spelled out for anyone who might not share that one common cultural knowledge. Now stop being dense.If you don't like reality, change it! me

not in anyway whatsoever racist. If anyone is racist, it would be the ta for having automatically taking the term "native" to refer to his race or any other."Mal nommer les choses, c'est accroître le malheur du monde" - Camus (thanks Davout)
"I thought you must be dead ..." he said simply. "So did I for a while," said Ford, "and then I decided I was a lemon for a couple of weeks. A kept myself amused all that time jumping in and out of a gin and tonic."

No it ain't. Only the oversensitive would think it racist.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)
