Will “I Love Lucy” Be The Next Show to Be Banned for Racism?

Poor Vivian Vance.

You obviously don’t know the rules. Only blacks being dragged causes cancellations, so feel free to say “Faggot”, “Chink” or “Engine”, you’ll only get a slap on the wrist.

No, no one is canceling it. OP = Republican troll.

I was binge watching the dreadful "The Lucy Show" on Hulu during the lockdown, and I was horrified when Miss Ball showed up in yellowface, disguised as a Japanese gardener. With slant eyes, dorky glasses, buck teeth and a horrible accent, saying things like "Oh, so solly!" and "You work in Horrywood?" Lucy's characterization was just as offensive as Mickey Rooney's in "Breakfast at Tiffany's." This may have been "acceptable" at the time, but why??

Then in "Here's Lucy," she did another offensive Asian impersonation, this time as a Chinese laundry clerk. But before she dons the disguise, she meets the Chinese laundry owner's two young daughters, bows down to them, and greets them with "Nicee meetie chinee girlee." Absolutely horrible!

Native Americans have been louder than BLM and get Halloween costumes banned every year, including Pocahontas. The SJW are firmly on their side. They even harassed a little girl in a shopping mall. I understand a lot of their grievances, but you can tell from the videos done by NA Gen Z’ers, they’re just looking to be victims. It’s faux outrage.

.....

Buzzfeed drums up the Native American thing every year. A lot of what they say is understandable but the rest screams desperate for clicks.

Deplorables who say SJW should all be put in border detention centers!

R10 = Jew-hating SJW

OP, Ricky wasn't dressed in Native American gear during Little Ricky's birth. He was dressed as a voodoo priest.

Ricky/Desi was Cuban. His whole career was associated with the song “Babalu,” which is an ode to an Afro-Caribbean god of plague, Babalu-Ayé. He wasn’t appropriating anyone’a culture—this was his culture—and he wasn’t mocking indigenous people.

Desi Arnaz AND Ricky Ricardo were fascinating in that sense. Desi was white-looking enough to pass as fully white if he had wanted, but his whole career was tied to Cuban culture, including the African and indigenous influences in the music and dance. I regard it as pretty frickin’ subversive by accident or by design that smack in the middle of the ultra-conventional 1950s, the most-watched TV show featured an interracial couple, one of whom performed Cuban music and dressed as a voodoo priest while his child was being born.

Good I hope so....never a fan!

And Lucy had to fight to get her real life Cuban husband to play her husband on the show. The powers that were wanted her husband to be a standard white "American" actor. They actually though Lucy being married to a Cuban wasn't "believable"

Ricky worshipped the Orishas? If only there were an episode were Lucy dabbles in Santeria to get a part in his show.

OP, Fred looked scarier.
