"Hughley uses his trademark humor to address the stark divisions in society that stem from centuries of white supremacy." —People
Surrender, white people! After 400 years of white supremacy in America, a reckoning is here. These are the terms of peace–and they are unconditional. Hope you brought a sense of humor, because this is gonna sting.
After centuries of oppressing others, white people are in for a surprise: You're about to be a minority yourself. Yes, the face of America is getting a lot browner—and a reckoning is coming. Black and brown folk are not going to take a back seat anymore. It's time to surrender your unjust privileges and sue for peace while the getting's still good. Lucky for America, D.L. Hughley has a plan.
On the eve of America becoming a majority-minority nation, Hughley warns, the only way for America to move forward peacefully is if Whites face their history, put aside all their visions of superiority, and open up their institutions so they benefit everyone in this nation. But we can still have fun with this right?
Surrender, White People! hilariously holds America account for its wrongs and offers D.L.'s satirical terms for reparations and reconciliation.
But it's not all bad news, white folks. The upside is that if you put D.L.'s plan into effect, you can FINALLY get black people to stop talking about oppression, discrimination, and their place in America. Now, that's something we ALL can get behind.

That said, I find this book much more interesting
"How Not to Get Shot: And Other Advice From White People"

DL Hughley has been hilarious on Daily Show recently, and he's been more productively funny than most comedians ever will be. The man paid for his entire family to go to college, before screaming at the internet about how evil he is, maybe read some of the book and get an informed opinion first.

Not too bad for someone who's "oppressed".
Personally I LOVE humor that pokes fun at the different perceptions of reality. However, if someone WERE to make a joke about black people...or hispanics...or Jews in the same manner...I wonder how it would be received.
Actually I don't wonder, I KNOW how it's received, and it's a shame that people can't laugh at ourselves more.
Just imagine if a show like All in the Family were to be proposed today. It's a classic of comedy, but it would never make it past the pitch meeting.

Stopped reading there. Having said that the book is appropriately priced, 50% less than a comic book.

If you can't tell the difference between mocking the power structure of the US and white people specifically, that's a tacit agreement that Hughley's premise is correct.

But Hughley (and many other black comedians) making the entire "white race" a punchline is A-OK?
Have you watched any of his comedy? He's funny, no doubt about it...I laugh every time...but he's also a racist.
