Responding to Sunili

@Sunili on twitter recently went so far as to label Dick Smith Foods ad as racist. You can see that post here. You can read my full response here since Sunili only published one line.

Hi Sunili,

Thanks for your comments. I understand what your† saying, and that you’re more sensitive to it as someone who has had to deal with racism your entire life.

I admit the two jokes you’re referring to are indeed racial.

However I still feel they are not racist as there is no malice in the jokes. They were not intended to cause harm.

I know its* not enough to say that my black friends loved the ad, but they did and that is their subjective opinion, which is equally as valid as yours.

Thanks again for writing Sunili I appreciate the time and your thoughts.

Cheers

Dan

Comedians Instagramed:

Ove the years I’ve taken loads of shots of comedians behind the scenes on TV and at gigs, festivals and shows all over the world.

To celebrate the 2012 comedy season, I’ve instagramed a few of my favourites.

I’m thinking of doing an exhibition…. let me know… would you like to see more in the flesh?
