Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Why do black comedians like Tyler Perry, Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence don plus-size pantyhose and parade around as their feisty grandmas?
  • Gender issues more than race issues?

    I was hoping that this article would delve deeper into the issues that the African-American community has with homosexuality. It came close with Dave Chappelle's ridiculous jokes about Brokeback Mountain, but then shies away. Tyler Perry's comments were taken at face value and not analyzed for what his denials mean.

    And of course, the irony of Eddie Murphy who does drag and picks up tranny hookers was not mentioned at all.
