In Living Color - LaShawn & The Native American Art Exhibit

One of the FUNNIEST skits from the hit TV series "In Living Color".

[@Detroit-gx5nd]

She’s actually a very good guide. She was timely. She knew all the exhibits and made sure people didn’t spread false historical information. Exceptional work Lashawn

[@Jukeboxster]

oh yeah, her knowledge was on point. Her customer service was atrocious though.😂

[@paulamiles9559]

There should be a Lashawn movie.

[@patriciarichards7273]

There really should be a LaShawn movie 🎥 She is a trip without the luggage 😂

LaShawn is so dangerous, what an impression, by the lovely T'Keyah Crystal Keyimah.

[@WytZox1]

* Such an attitude indeed! ☺

This show had great writing and all the cast were very good actors. T'keyah was so gorgeous !!!

[@bradcook8640]

Lashawn was always my favorite skit on ILC. This particular one was my favorite of those. I love that "Why come they running up in here like they at a special at K mart or sumin'"

[@crackerjacker2011]

This was my favorite character as well!

[@crackerjacker2011]

@J.D. Contreras Mmmhmm....well as sure as I am that scientists all over the world are tripping over themselves to study your incredible sense of color, what you need to do is worry about yourself and that awful haircut.

[@mauricewilliams5873]

Me 2...my favorite character

[@micmaliss]

T'Keyah nailed this character. Every one of them were funny.

[@Zarathustran]

Same, same, and same. I couldn’t remember her name and I tried to look it up using the word docent and that sure as fuck didn’t work but I found it now LOL. So are y’all my tribe? 🙄😜 lmfao

[@danavixen6274]

Lashawn may come across as "ghetto" yet some of her comments were truthful. In Living Color pushed the envelope by allowing writers to create thought provoking material behind the scenes. The early days of ILC were phenomenal. The Wayans family is underrated!

[@misstantrix]

She is actually really smart, quick and accurate! Lol! If the character were to have a British accent, I'm sure she would be looked at differently.

[@nunyabiz6925]

She was awesome!!!

[@mauricedavis8261]

That's real talk!!! Legendary!!!🙏👍😎

[@tanjigandy]

Right?! It would be so easy at face value to take this a parody of sassy black women but that is not at all the spirit this character was written or played in. Lashawn was acted out with the same class that snooty white women have the privilege of expressing without being labeled as sassy or angry. This is a “right on” to black women asserting themselves in the workplace and I live.

[@danavixen6274]

@@tanjigandy 💯 I completely agree! This is a well written sketch!

[@jcwla]

Does anyone else love it when KC is touching the exhibit and LaShawn sneaks up on her and says "And just what are you doing?"

[@FallacyAsPraxis]

Comedy on TV today can never compare to how it was back in the day. It used to be SOOOOO funny. Everyone laughed, and no one was offended by it. They mocked everybody on this show. No way they would ever put a show like this on the air now.

thats because theres only a limited amount of black representation on TV today ..so those few on tv represent the whole...whether the portrayal is positive or negative...besides throughout the history of Hollywood theres been more than enough stereotypes ...directly and indirectly

LaShawn.....

[@David-kv9yh]

Stereotypes exist for a reason. Who hasn't been around a Lashawn?

[@Matto2t]

@crpsaiyan That is so true. There are indeed some people who are as you described. Due to such a negative attitude like LaShawn had, such people like her will have a hard time making it in the real world (like getting in trouble at their jobs) and probably won't be well liked by others. These are the types of folks who show little or no respect to other people, and are so messed up in their minds, and are to be avoided as often as possible. -Matt
