The only good thing about Dave Chappelle is Charlie Murphy. Every one of my whitey friends was all gaga about his show where it looked to me like he was doing a minstrel routine for white guys who want to believe all black people are on crack and whatnot.
I'm not here to say what he meant to people who are not white dudes comfortable with throwing racist slurs around "as a joke". But I know what they were getting out of his show.
He does indeed "know the whites".
