Much like his colleague Jon Stewart on Monday, Larry Wilmore could not wrap his head around the case of the ex-president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP, Rachel Dolezal, a white woman who was revealed to be posing as African-American last week.
“Much like climate change denial, this is not based on science,” Wilmore said.
“Sorry lady, you are white, you don’t get an opinion on this. This is not a Buzzfeed quiz — Which ‘Living Single’ character are you?” he added.
Walking through each piece of the scandal, Wilmore stopped to pause at one of the many answers Dolezal gave about whether she was black or not.
“We’re all from the African continent,” she was quoted as saying by the Seattle Times.
Wilmore’s audience roared.
“Yes, but some of us more recently than others!” the host said to applause.
“There must be something good that’s come out of this, I mean — shouldn’t even fake black lives matter?” he asked.
