This joke makes me uncomfortable A black dad and his son are flying on a plane. Halfway through the flight, the pilot announces that an engine has stopped working and they will be dropping all luggage in order to land safely. The dad squeezes the boys hand and reassures him. Minutes later, the pilot gets back on the speaker to say another engine has blown and that people will have to start jumping from the plane to save the rest. The pilot says the fairest thing to do is go in alphabetical order. "Ok...A...all African Americans jump off the plane." The boy looks up at his dad but the dad says nothing and doesn't move. "Ok...B...all Blacks jump off the plane." Again...father does nothing. "Ok...C...all coloureds jump off the plane." At this point, the boy is scared and doesn't understand why his dad isn't moving!! "Dad...I think they are talking about us? What do we do?" "Ok..son..listen. ..today we are n****ers"
