Practical Guide to Racism

Professor C.H. Dalton, alter ego of writer Sam Means of The Daily Show on comedy central, has decided to write a book on the Practical Guide to Racism. Along with the book, Dalton has made a collection of instructional videos where he comically expresses his points. Topics include Dalton's concept of race, Jews in the media, stereotypes in video games, and how stereotypes can be useful.

Whether people want to believe it or not, the sad fact is that racism still exists today. Yes, even in a civilized country such as American, we have not advanced past the point of judging people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin(Dr. ML King). I can hardly take offense to the videos, with the comedic twist, he's no more than giving his "Chapelle." And you have to respect his hustle, the writer's strike has these people at home with nothing better to do.
