I know this joke is racist, but it is funny, and, unfortunately, has some truth in it. So, here it is:

"No matter how the society decide to call black people, at some point this new word becomes politically incorrect."
 
Far out man, language doesn't evolve, groovy.

Well, the n-word was OK till mid 20-the century, the "coloured" was a PC word that was used to substitute the n-word, and now it become politically incorrect. Now "black" becomes politically-incorrect and everybody use African-American instead (this is the stupidest word to use for black people, just imagine how Americans should called black people leaving in South Africa). I am wondering why white people are still called white :).

African Canadians?
 
I remember a cartoon in Playboy back in the 70s which wouldn't pass muster today, but I thought it kind of pertinent. at the time.
A bespectacled middle aged white guy at an upscale looking cocktail party is talking to a well heeled black gentleman who also looks middle aged and business like. White guy says "I don't want to make any social blunders. What are you chaps calling yourselves these days?"
 
Your joke sucks. The best 'racist' joke is:

Q: You have a Black guy and a Latino guy, who drives?
A: The cop.

As a younger man, I never attributed this to be applicable to Ontario. I automatically assumed this to be a gang/cultural South Central LA thing.

I'd love to hear some racist jokes against the "whites" from our non-blanched brothers.

More of an observation than a joke. More about parsing words, which political correctness makes a full time occupation for some. Used to regard the term N_r Lover as sort of a badge of honor and still think in 1960's Alabama where I went to high school it very much was. Even saying it out loud would invite backlash from somebody. Context is often critical but often ignored. Oh, and an actual racist joke - what's the difference between Martin Luthor King's birthday and St. Patrick's day? On St. Patrick's day everyone wants to be Irish...

How many white anglo saxons does it take to change a light bulb?
 
True, just like how we went from Red Indian->Native->Aboriginal->First Nation->Indigenous. What the fuck is next?
 
...Context is often critical but often ignored. ...

Grew up in a multi-cultural area and a few friend would make fun of me for never using the word with the "a" ending. Just not worth it. My friends knew me but who knows who else might listen in.

There has been a change over the years though. LeBron's talk show discussed it and they never came to any agreement about black people using any version of it (though age seemed to be a divider on it).
 
Yeah, takes such a toll on your life. I don't know how you've survived all that hardship.

You are missing the point: Why in a few years a new name that was introduced to substitute a past non-PC name becomes non-PC itself?

You are missing the point. Language is a continually evolving thing so why wouldn't we change things that are offensive to some of our population and inconsequential to the rest?

If you recall a Playboy joke in the 70's, You must have been at least 10 years old. At least.

You must have bought your funeral plot in your 40's.

It's good to go any time now, correct.
