Racist Joke

JOKE OF THE WEEK, 17 May 2010

Dietrich Fischer – TRANSCEND Media Service

A crowded lifeboat in the ocean got into a storm, the waves got higher and higher, and the boat was in danger of sinking.

The captain said, “I am very sorry, dear passengers, but some of us have to jump overboard and try to swim ashore, otherwise our boat will sink and we all die.  To be totally impartial I will call on people in alphabetic order.  Are there any Africans on board?”  Silence.  “Are there any Blacks on board?”  Silence.  “Are there any Colored People on board?”  A little boy pointed at his arm and said to his father, “I think we are colored people.”  The father said, “Shshsht…, today we are Zulus.”

  2. I am from ZZZZZZZZZZZZimbabwe and I am very grateful for such a good joke on the various identities one can be a carrier of. Does Dietrich Fischer invent these weekly jokes himself? He is good. I never knew it may come in handy to be from Zimbabwe…
