*MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry, an African American, made a bold move when she invited a panel of guests on her Sunday show to dissect the importance of racial jokes in society.
Maybe race jokes are the place where we can actually talk about race? Harris-Perry asked her guests; which consisted of a mixture of social commentators,scholars and comedians. They agreed, noting that humor is an effective tool to introduce sensitive topics like race. Harris-Perry credited comedian Dave Chappelle as one of the few who possesses the ability to deconstruct race unlike any other.
When some of the guests decided to try their hand at race jokes, things got a littlewell weird. Comedian Dean Obeidallah said that one of his best jokes about race poked fun at white people. Obviously recalling recent remarks from a Wisconsin senator about the African-American holiday Kwanzaa, he said that when whites become a minority in the United States, they can look forward to having a month to celebrate their heritage or maybe just a week. Whitey week, Obeidallah suggested.
Then Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead told her joke: It would have been kind of fun to see Herman Cain as the presidential nominee, because there would have been mass suicides in the Klan, making her fellow panelists groan. University of Pennsylvania Professor Anthea Butlers joke is said to have brought the house down. She poked fun at her days in grad school when she and most of her fellow students were impoverished.
If a black person said they were broke, it meant that they had negative in their bank account, Butler began. A white person says theyre broke, we never believed them, because it meant that they had $500 in their bank account. They dont know the meaning of being broke.
But it was Harris-Perry, the host, that got the most props for telling what was termed a genuine ethnic joke.
In her joke, a young, Jewish man brings three women home to his mother and asks her to determine which woman he will be marrying. After talking to all of the women, the mother correctly identifies her sons bride on the first try. When the son asks how she accomplished this feat, the mother replies, I dont like her.

This weekend Moscow andSt. Petersburg will host one ofthe biggest jazz festivals inRussia, "Triumph ofJazz," which was initiated bysaxophonist andUnited Russia party member Igor Butman.
Thefestival introduced agreat number ofjazz newcomers over thelast few years, but also gave tempting opportunities toRussian jazzmen toshow their ideas andmusic both towider audiences andto American colleagues. As another timely motivation toexamine thephenomena ofRussian jazz comes toour attention, we decided tocatch up with anumber ofmusicians tounderstand what is happening tothe genre that had been asynonym tohigh treason decades before.
It is extremely difficult tocatch Igor Butman, themost well-known Russian jazz musician worldwide, aweek before his festival "Triumph ofJazz" starts. This year thefestival, which has taken place inMoscow annually since 2001, expands toSt. Petersburg.
"I basically invite those artists that seem interesting tome. My personal taste andmy understanding ofjazz forms thechoice, andthe audience, acute andknowledgeable, responds ofcourse," said Butman, who also owns arecord label andtwo clubs inMoscow. "We try not torepeat ourselves andalways invite new musicians. However, some legendary names have been inthe festival several times indifferent bands andacts."
This year thefestival welcomes jazz-funk guitarist Lee Ritenour andhis band, pianist Bill Charlap Trio andlegendary drummer Roy Haynes andhis Fountain ofYouth ensemble as headliners.
Lee Ritenour started his music career with theMamas & Papas, has appeared inover 3,000 sessions andhas recorded 42 albums. This will be his first visit toRussia.
"I have been encountering great people all over theworld who are interested inmusic ingeneral, not just my music. AndI have heard fromother musicians that there is agreat audience inRussia," he told TheMoscow Times. "I will have my eyes andears open fora dialogue with Russian people andhopefully we will enjoy spending time with each other."
Drummer Roy Haynes, 87, is another must-see artist who will perform inRussia forthe first time. He has contributed toa wide range ofgenres frombebop tofusion andavant-garde jazz. Nick-named "Snap Crackle" fora distinctive style ofplaying drums, Roy Haynes used tobe apartner ofthe legends saxophonists Lester Young andCharlie Parker andsinger Sarah Vaughan, among others. He released as many as 26 albums as aleader, andin recent years has been touring with his Fountain ofYouth band, which is made up ofyoung musicians only, becoming Haynes' own personal source ofyouth.
