Halle Berry Remark?

According to this article, Halle Berry made a remark during the taping of 閳ユ翻he Tonight Show閳?that implied that all Jewish people have large noses. If she were white and had said something about black people閳ユ獨 stereotypically* nappy hair or full lips or nose, would we want her head served up on a platter? And more importantly, would Sharpton be there?

* notice I said 閳ユ笩tereotypically閳?br>

Halle Berry Remark?

anyone that doesn't believe that black people are far more racist than any other ethnic group hasn't been paying attention.

Halle Berry Remark?

The answer to your general question is 'yes'.

However, it seems from the article that she said nothing about 'all Jewish people' - she referred specifically to her Jewish cousin. It is up to Jews (myself included) to interpret whether or not that represented a generalized comment.

Halle Berry Remark?

That is not what she said u should read the article agian

Halle Berry Remark?

If the scenario you propose actually happened then you can bet your sweet bippy that Sharpton would be crying "foul" along with The "rev" Jackson.

Halle Berry Remark?

I can't believe she said that, and yes probably Sharpton would be there if a white person had made a comment like that, nappy head, full lips nose, and all LOL. I couldn't resist. No, really I'm not that type of person and can't believe that she is either, especially on TV for all the world to see and hear. She always seemed so nice but she must think she's above most of us.

Halle Berry Remark?

Halle I used to really like you but since neither I nor any of my family and friends have"big" noses I think I will pass on you. You may have said you are sorry but I don't buy it. And yes you are right, we are Jewish,

PS My neighbor has a huge nose and he is an African American man

Halle Berry Remark?

Sorry but most of the jewish people I know have large noses - why do we have to pretend they don't? And personally I can't see why it is such a big deal - I think people just need to grow up.

Halle Berry Remark?

Excuse me, but my sources say Halley Berry said, "Here is where I look like my Jewish cousin".

....

??

Could you please provide a source where she is referring to all Jewish people that inhabit this continent as being *the* big nose people? Seriously, maybe I missed something. Also, when women become pregnant, I forget what stage of pregnancy, but their nose tends to get bigger so...if her cousin has the same size nose then you people just have to get over it.

"The past is the past...MOVE ON...get over it! ....stop using the past as 'get-by' pass!" - Haha! Does that sound familiar?

Halle Berry Remark?

I agree- all hell would break loose- Sharpton would be there protesting her, Jay Leno, The Tonight Show- He'd probably try to get it shut down- However, he is to the extreme...

Halle Berry Remark?

She made a comment that played to a stereotype. I don't know that this alone makes her racist. You are correct that if the comment was about black people there would be holy heck to pay.

I agree that black people are the most racist. After all, I can't believe that black people look down on each other based on how dark their skin is.

Halle Berry Remark?

Halle Berry IS half white. Try again. (Don't play the race card.)

Furthermore, Halle Berry didn't make any comment that seemed to be racist in the least.
