Are there any white comedians that "call out" black folks?

They'd never make it big if they did. If you are white, you are only allowed to make fun of yourself and other white people. You MIGHT be able to get away with it if you have a family member of the race you're joking about, but even then it's a tight line.

Personally, I think racial humor of all races is hilarious. I'm an equal opportunity offender. :)

I think it's PC for white comedians to make fun of Mexicans...hell, it's PC for EVERYONE to make fun of Mexicans it seems. Jay Leno does it just about every night

I guess I need to watch more TV. :) The only time I see white people cracking jokes on minorities on TV is on "The Shield." Even then, it's not just to be funny, but to belittle the criminals.

As Chevy Chase once said: "I don't judge a man by the color of his skin, I judge him by the size of his nostrils". ;)

Rich Vos?

No...I have been trying to remember his name. We watched a video of him in Critical Thinking class and he was pretty outrageous. Even said the "N" word. NINJA!

I watch comedians all the time. I have seen countless white comedians who make fun of blacks. One lady I was watching was busting hard on this black girl's name right in the crowd. And like anything else everyone laughed including the girl. The ones on Comic View really bring it, but its all good. Laughter is Good Medicine :)
