Are there any black comedians who don't use "black humor" as their main bit?

[sygyzy]

Boohoo. Cry me a river. As if white comedians don't do the same thing? Look at the top selling comedy album in the country right now. Larry The Cable Guy - Right to Bare Arms. The most racist POS I've heard in a long time. "Get er done!"

Just off the top of my head... Bill Cosby and Sinbad. Both of whom were very funny without the race card.

Nobody is crying about it, it's just the majority of famous black comedians (IMO and in the opinion of quite a few other people) rely heavily on race.

Seriously, every black comedians' main schtick is just to talk about how black people do this and that and white people do it this way. Can anyone contradict that with a specific name?

There are many. Clearly you've never seen comicview on BET, or watched def comedy jam when it was on HBO. Def comedy jam is on DVD now, rent it!!

i think its just natural, since a black guy in that time grew up analyzing everything about himself compared to white people. Probably got so in detail, that its like the black comedians main source of material

Black/white jokes can get tired after awhile, but sometimes they are hilarious. I think a lot of white people get tired of it fast not so much because it's not funny, but because of the double standard where a white comedian can't do good race jokes without being labeled a klan member.

I've never watched any of the Blue Collar Comedy guys. I'd be happy if their careers were flushed down the toilet tomorrow. But I highly doubt he tells racist jokes. He couldn't get away with it. Please give me an example of his racism other than "He's a redneck, he has to be a racist."

And I'm pretty sure they've had black guests on their show before. The BCC guys hardly use any sort of racial comedy.

Come on sygyzy, I'm waiting for an example.
