Kanye West rages on twitter at Jimmy Kimmel

"Kimmel was trying to be funny, but he isn't black and doesn't have a history of being infantilized or talked down to in the same way that black men have," says Nsenga Burton, founder of the African Diaspora blog The Burton Wire. "He's just thinking about the joke, the punchline. He's not thinking about what black artists, or black people in general, have dealt with for as long as we can remember.

History is rife with examples of a privileged class depicting minorities as childlike, or barely civilized, or, literally, children. For black Americans, or for people of color in general, that tendency has manifested in many ways — calling black servants "boy," for example, or depicting a country with a majority non-white population as a little kid.

This is Jimmy Freaking Kimmel. He is making fun of Kanye because he is Kanye not because he is black.
