Gary Owen made Black women the butt of multiple jokes as he sat there on that couch, and Shannon said nothing, not even when Gary called Shannon out for not protecting Black women. Gary Owen used his proximity to Blackness to make jokes that are specific to our culture and belong to us, and Shannon said nothing. If Gary Owen is the example of white people being too comfortable in Black spaces, Shannon Sharpe is the example of Black people who let that happen. I would like to permanently rescind whatever invitation Gary Owen has received to the cookout, barbecue, family reunion or whatever else because enough is enough. Gary Owen has built his entire career on being the “down white boy.”He’s gotten too comfortable.
