Jazmine Hughes is tired of people making jokes about white people. Ms. Hughes is African American. And, no, she is not saying that minority people should not make fun of white people. Instead, she argues that white people need to stop making fun of white people.
African Americans and other minorities simply need to make fun of white people. That is a simple truth, according to Hughes. The fact of the matter is that minorities need racist humor "to placate themselves in the face of the overwhelming reality: Its just better to be Caucasian."
Racist humor against whites, she continues, is "one of the most enjoyable" ways to "fight prejudice." But it is not something whites should do, even if they're making fun of themselves.
"This is how the party ends," Hughes writes, "with white people wanting in on the joke so badly that they create a separate category of cool white people who mock their own whiteness in an effort at solidarity."
Jokes about white people, Hughes continues, are not actually about white people, but are about "socioeconomic circumstances" and truthful "inequalities between whites and other races."
In the very rare circumstance that "white people are the actual target," she explains, it's not actually about all whites, but funny things that certain parts of the white community do.

We used to go to the comedy clubs in Denver fairly often. With liberals on the rampage and blacks just too over the top, forget about it. “Comedy” isn’t even funny anymore.
The comedy club specials on cable reflect that. Most of them are anti-white, leftist screed.
