Racist? Maybe. (Unintentionally.) But I Know That Gymnast!

 
I don’t see color. People tell me I’m white and I believe them because police officers call me “sir.”

And if you think NBC is a bunch of racists because they cut to a promo featuring a monkey gymnast right after Gabby Doublas won a gold medal, (click above) you are high. I watched it live and that thought never occurred to me. Face it – if your mind makes that immediate black person/monkey connection, you are racist.

Either way, I was just glad to see my buddy Crystal the Capuchin monkey booked a series. Well done, girl.
