SNL's Leslie Jones "Slave Joke" sparked Backlash
Yay, another Black comedian was on SNL.
Boo, she debuted with a slave joke?
Yes, Miss Leslie Jones was a guest on SNL's segment Weekend Update and talked about People Magazine naming Lupita Nyong’o their most beautiful person.
As she praised Lupita, she went on this slave mess, watch here.
Folks were not happy with this, flooding Twitter and Facebook with their concerns. It wasn't a great start for Leslie. I hope she's careful with her approach in the future.

Ouch.
That's painfully bad taste.
