If you are white and rode in ZULU, are you screwed?

I mean, you will have a picture in blackface and never be able to get elected anywhere.

I got hit in the head with a coconut from a Zulu float back in the early Nineties. I may sue. Haven't really been right since.

You also probably like alcohol, so your supreme court chances are done.

Some people are always on their minstrel cycle.

Worse than that he was dating Whoopi Goldberg at the time.

I bet if I asked one of my black friends who ride in ZULU if they were offended, they would probably laugh their asses off.

Went to a Zulu float party last night. We were one of three tables of white people

It was a lot of fun. Food was good. Line dancing is dumb as hell, but some people were actually dancing. Stupid DJ kept mixing two or three good songs together, so you never knew what was going on.

There isn't any awkwardness as far as ethnicity is concerned. Everyone is just fun and having a good time. As much as some white mayors want you to believe South LA is the racism capital of the world, it just isn't

I do a bike pub crawl every spring that is almost all while people and our final stop is at the Zulu headquarters. Those people are so damn nice to us there. Always a great time.

Did they play “step in the name of love” by R Kelly by chance?

Don't think so, but it could've been mixed in there somewhere. At one point, he had Choppa, Juvenile, and Cardi B all playing at the same time

It’s amazing how well people interact and get along in the real world. Imagine if the politicians and race baiters would just get out of the way and stop trying to convince everyone that everyone else is full of hatred.

You'd be OK in Louisiana because the locals understand.

If you moved halfway across the country, you'd get thrown off message because you'd keep having to explain that it's a historically black krewe and blackface doesn't mean the same thing in that context.
