That’s Not Funny: 10 Comedians Whose Offensive Jokes Crossed The Line

- By

Sarah Silverman

Blackface is always wrong and always racist. Sarah Silverman used the blatant form of racism on her show, “The Sarah Silverman Program” and she’s tweeted a photo of herself in Blackface with the caption, “I’m having minstrel cramps.” Seriously, Sarah?

Some of Sarah’s most controversial jokes troll the lives of Black people, transgender and the mentally disabled. From using the offensive term “retarded” to demeaning the Black lives lost to violence (in her “Black NRA” skit on Funny Or Die), Sarah’s accustomed to offending and thrives on it. Luckily, she’s calmed down and hasn’t made headlines marginalizing groups since last year, so here’s hoping she learned her lesson.
