Introducing the accountants from PricewaterhouseCoopers, which tabulated the vote results during the 2016 Oscars, host Chris Rock instead brought onstage three young kids of Asian heritage. As the kids clutched briefcases, they visually illustrated the stereotype that Asians are diligent workers who excel at math. "If anybody’s upset about that joke, just tweet about it on your phone that was also made by these kids,” Chris Rock added, a punch line as a reference to child labor in Asia. The Oscars demonstrated on TV that it is totally acceptable to continue to make malicious racial jokes on people with Asian heritage and YES even on Asian kids. That can translate into it is okay to continue to bully Asian kids because the Oscars approved this behavior. We the people say it is NOT OKAY.
