It’s totally cool if you like, or even love, Leslie Jones.

What’s not cool is thinking that those of us who don’t love her, or think she is well suited to be the new host of The Daily Show have this opinion because we are racist.

Here is a list of black, female comedians–all who worked for The Daily Show, The Nightly Show, or The Opposition–and can deliver comedy without YELLING EVERY LINE OF DIALOGUE.

  1. Dulce Sloan - TDS
  2. Jessica Williams - TDS
  3. Franchesca Ramsey - TNS
  4. Robin Thede - TNS
  5. Holly Walker - TNS
  6. Niccole Thurman - TO

    It’s not only racist but sexist too.

    Did you even read what i wrote? I am neither sexist nor racist. All of the other comedians I listed–who are black women–would do a fine job as host.
