What he isn't Black? LOL!

Here is Eddie Murphy on Saturday night live.. epic.

My god buzzfeed got the story the feminist are gonna crucify him

I'll bet there won't be as many people offended, bevause they 'like' him. Say this were any other actor who wasn't as popular: hell would break loose.

It’s comedy people, not racism. Is Dave Chappelle considered, “white face?” No, because it’s comedy.

Jimmy Fallon should own it. Any face is ok!

And what about Eddie Murphy in Coming to America Stereotypical display of an old Jewish white man

Let’s remember that the execs on the show allowed him to do it.

In that case when is the apology for this 2004 movie going to be forthcoming? keeneniwayans MarlonWayans shawn_wayans whiteface

OMG THAT WAS 20 YEARS AGO HE'S NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT

I'm more offended he apologized

Now do one for giving Trump a campaign boost by having him on your show and playing with his hair

How the hell did it take 20 years for people to find this ? I don’t automatically have an issue with it. But this wasn’t some underground tv show. This is mainstream comedy and it took 20 years for people to complain?

Xuxa, corre aqui rapidinho. Sempre é tempo de se rever

He’s so two faced

Jimmy Fallon, Caught in Blackface Controversy, Previously Urged All White People to Speak out Against Racism'The Tonight Show' host impersonated fellow comedian Chris Rock in blackface for an SNL sketch in 2000. We don’t care about comedians in blackface!

I think it's time for a new late-night host or simply retire the program altogether. Wait? A comedy sketch on Saturday Night Live in 2000? Give it a goddam rest, this concerns me more.
