Marlon Wayans is one of the legends in the game, but his popularity has resurged over the past decade. Due to his eccentric personality, Marlon is almost solely known for being funny. As a result, he has shown more of his serious side. This afternoon, he offered his opinion on the Montgomery riverboat altercation, which has gotten a lot of attention on the internet. Essentially, Marlon accused the Black people involved of portraying the stereotype. As a result, people are upset with him.
Marlon Wayans’ style of comedy, in the eyes of many, has been stereotypical. While “The Wayans Bros.” has gone down as a classic sitcom, it relied heavily on slapstick humor. Actually, the Wayans family’s comedy is reliant upon slapstick comedy. However, in their defense, this style of humor worked for acts such as “The Three Stooges.” Regardless, in the current landscape of entertainment, every person has a platform.
Marlon Wayans offered his opinion on the riverboat fight that took place in Montgomery, Alabama, this weekend. Many people in the Black community are happy that Black people finally stood up for themselves. Also, this is one time where it can’t be said that Black people don’t stick together. However, from the tone of Marlon’s post, he’s disappointed in how those people handled the situation. Because of this, Black people on social media are calling Marlon out.
