In the recent years of Instagram and the contemporary art of stand up, there is a distinct use of black women as the the subject and sometimes foundation of comedy for male comedians. These jokes are not simply jokes, but are loaded with political repercussions and continue to position women as jokes themselves, as less serious, as less of a full human. The jokes are not about the characteristics of black women, black women are the joke.
