When Conan comes back from a beach vacation, he does the same thing to ghosts.

I had to laugh about her comment on being the only member of your race at a party. Years ago I dated a Mexican woman. Every party we went to I was the only white person there. At one party the DJ saw me and played Play That Funky Music. After that every party, I went to, the DJ would play that song.

"Hope you get sickle cell" that was a Richard Pryor tag to 'wino dealing with dracula' 👀

[gueits]

I'm convinced 30 years from now, Wanda Sykes will still look the same. Lol

[LambentOrt]

I love Wanda! She tells it like it is!

[caryn]

Omg - that constantly happened to me growing up - look we match now - hey we are almost the same colour!!!! Lmao😂

[YouHaveReachedBob]

"Everything we talk about somehow goes back to race."
Yeah like everything she said during this clip.

[guillermo]

Taking a little Richard Pryor liberty with the sickle cell reference.

[charaoki]

The same people that argue comedians are being censored are complaining about Wanda Sykes topics. They're jokes people, she literally is married to a white French woman, calm down.

Wanda: Everything is about race.

Also Wanda: Poor is poor!

[john]

Wanda made a whole career talking about white ppl lol

[bernlin]

Wanda is such a genius, one of a kind!

[Deadliftchips]

She needs to go back on curb your enthusiasm. Miss her :(

[ztheiss]

Depicting black murders/murderers were decried as stereotyping and racist. Networks responded to that feedback, Wanda. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't, apparently...

I went to a funeral for my Japanese uncle-in-law. I was the only white person. Japanese funerals are very different and it seems that most people don’t know all the etiquette (or at least in my family). I just copied the deceased’s wife. Luckily everyone was very kind so they made me feel like I belonged there. ❤

[KidCthulhu]

The second she said ''White people'' the crowd laughed, either a sign went up or social conditioning kicked in...

[zoperxplex]

Wanda mines the race issue for it's comedic potential just to avoid questions about her Harpo Marx hairdo.

[alib]

The "white poor" bit was funny

[kareninthevalley]

This was very funny and still very relevant. Normally i don't like Wanda's jokes but these were true to life.
