Letter: Online humor magazine inappropriately vulgar
(02/05/03 5:00am)
I got an email the other day to look at Malignant Humor, this new online humor magazine, so I thought I'd give it a try. I was surprised and shocked by much of what they put up on the website. As a black man, I am upset that someone finds it funny to keep perpetuating the stereotype of the black man as a dumb, sex-crazed beast. The sad irony is that these little opinion columns on their site were probably written by some white kid who has no clue about what it's like to be a black man in this country, dealing with a society that views you as a rapist and a criminal.
