Read the comment that Chris Rock made that got black women mad

Actor and comedian Chris Rock, who's reportedly worth about $70million made a comment earlier this week that's got quite a few African American women upset. They said he shaded his own mother and black women everywhere in a shameless bid for an Oscar nomination…

While speaking at the Variety Creative Impact Awards, Chris Rock began campaigning for an Oscar for his latest comedy Top Five and supposedly made his mother and Black women the butt of his joke
"Comedies never get nominated. So I'm going to blatantly appeal to the voters. February 22 is my mother's birthday. 70th birthday. If I'm nominated, I will take her to the Oscars. If not, I will take her to Fatburger. We don't need another Black woman at Fatburger. So please vote for me." Chris said to nfluential Academy Award voters
Is this an offensive statement? Black twitter has been letting him have it for days now!

    I can't say I'm surprise. Black women have always and will forever be the butt of every black comedian's joke. The day I lost interest was when Kevin Hart openly said he wouldn't dare make a gay joke (because he knows the movers and shakers of Hollywood are all closeted gay men and woman, and, or pushing the gay agenda). And any joke perceived as homophobic would mean the end of his dreamy career. He will never be allowed to work in Hollywood again. Ask Isaiah Washington what that is like. The only open-season jokes are black women. And dark skinned women are usually his favorite target.

    Oh shut up! Chris Rock is known for his insensitive and irreverent comedy. When you black people go to his shows and he cracks on white people (which constitutes majority of his jokes/show), we don't see any OMG outrage!! Instead you're there kikiki-ing and laughing it right up. Stop with it. I understand racism and all but geez stop already!
