Jokes Dinah Can’t Tell If She Can Tell: Diverse City
– by Dinah T.
Three white execs in steam room at Warner Bros. gym.
EXEC 1
I got this diversity thing down guys, I finally watched Selma AND went to see Get Out.
EXEC 2
Oh yeah? I went to see Get out, Black Panther, AND sat through my Emmy screener of Atlanta. I have been “woke,” man!
EXEC 3
(smirking)
Fuck you guys! I’m reuniting Michael B. Jordan & Ryan Coogler in a new film about the 2006 standardized test cheating scandal at Atlanta public schools! And guess who’s writing the script, losers?
EXECS 1 & 2
(sighing in unison, then in sing-song) Ava DuVernay.
EXEC 3
Plot twist! Ta-Nehisi god damned Coates! BOOM! Diversi-TAAAY!
Exec 3 breaks into really bad MC Hammer.
EXEC 3 (Cont’d)
You can’t touch this!
