Comedian To Upset White People: Black People Have Felt This Way Forever
“Join the fun!”

Since Donald Trump’s election on Tuesday, many white liberals have expressed shock and disbelief that the candidate, who ran a racist and sexist campaign, actually won.

On Nov. 10, “Late Night with Seth Meyers” writer Amber Ruffin had a special message for all of the “white Hillary supporters who are feeling disappointed in their fellow Americans today.”

Her message?

“Join the fun!”

In the clip above, Ruffin explains that black people have been feeling this disappointment forever, adding:

“This week, my Facebook feed is full of white people being like: who knew America was so racist? We did! Join the fun!”

1. SNL skit last Saturday with Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock made this point brilliantly... too bad it was more sad than funny.
