When Black People Like You, They Will Hook You Up | Gary Owen

I have some of the greatest fans in the world

As a black guy that cannot remember names, this is spot on.

[kwame]

“Oh shit! That’s ole boy!” is accurate as hell 😂😂

[raven]

Facts I'm White and I didn't have enough money to eat told my black friend hey I'm broke can you buy me McDonald's pay you back. Instead went to his parents place and they fed me like a hog. And they knew I was struggling they gave me home cooked meals and left overs to feed me for the week. When it comes to Black Americans cooking the best food I ever had.

"He do seem like he do too much."
Nailed it 🤣

[joelprinz]

This man has the audacity to be this accurate 😂😂😂

[CCJJChannels]

“Don’t look back here! You know you, you!” 😂

[GenXMusicMan]

Everything he said is true. As a white dude who grew up in the suburbs of a small town, moving to the big city life and making black friends was the best thing I did for myself. I’m grateful for all of them.

[Kristyle]

We black people are very kind and generous—when we got you, we got you!! ❤

[stringer]

It’s funny because his take on black people isn’t stereotypical, everything is true and genuine lol

[jarrodheglar]

I can remember back in the 90's when he did stand up on BET and he was the only white guy on the card but he brought the house down every time he took the stage.

[shontaiblye]

“he do seem like he’s doing too much” 🤣 😂 this is proof he’s got genuine experience

[wolfywox]

One key thing I loved: Gary got caught on the field by the white security guard, knew he could get in trouble, but still didn't want to snitch, even though he probably wouldn't have gotten the other guard in trouble. That's how you keep the hook ups coming. 😄

[geecheetone]

The “HOOKUP” that’s our little way of sticking it to the “man”!😂😂😂

[cherissetillman]

As a black person who worked in customer service for years, ...100% accurate. I've hooked people up. I've known people and moved some things around for deals.

[PonchoBilly]

Race humor is at its best when you’ve actually been around the other race, the accuracy is hilarious

5:04 I can confirm that I can relate to that reaction. I'm an African woman and was in New York for the first time, lost on the subway looking for my accommodation. I asked an AA woman working there to help me. When I told her the address she said: "Now WHO organised this accommodation for you?! That area is NOT safe at all!".
She was visibly disappointed/annoyed, shaking her head and frowning like she was ready to phone that person and give them a piece of her mind! 😄
No one besides my own mother has ever expressed that much concern for my safety in my life! 😭😅 she was so caring 🩷🙏

[Celisia]

"He do seem like he do too much!" I'm in tears over here. Gary is a fool! 😂😂😂

[TMarie]

He is spot on with the respect shown by the black community, and how accommodating they are for their own and people that they respect! I use to always tip the chef (who happened to be black) for the way he prepared the food from the menu. One day we went in to eat, and the tuna wasn't on the menu anymore. 😢 I enquired about it, and the girl went to ask the chef. He ended up coming out of the kitchen to see who was asking. He saw us and said, "I got you!" 🙌😊

[SherryLoveNyc]

If you going to talk about black folks or tell jokes about black folks THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT 👍👏👏 no stereotypes or insults just the honest truth about being friends with another culture. I must say this guy is very good 👍 very funny without being vulgar or insulting.

[antoinejones]

This the most positive comment section about race I ever seen love the energy🙏🏽
