Talk:Ted Danson Blackface Performance at Whoopi Goldberg's Roast (1993)/@comment-71.185.196.106-20140727170332/@comment-10079197-20140729041209

In Ted Danson's defense, he DID get the blessing of several African American comedians (not just Whoopi Goldberg) before he did this. It's just proof that not even people in the offended race can be good judges of what's acceptable. Danson did publicly apologize and since then the African American community has forgiven him. Not defending what he did, just offering a bit more explanation is all.
