Aren't there a lot of accepted jokes about black men being well endowed or otherwise physically gifted?

But do people even know the types of hardships Asian Americans had to endure?
How many people know about the Chinese Massacre of 1871 in LA?
If we really are going to compare suffering, wouldn't Native Americans be on the top of the list? And yet their suffering isn't really something that is focused on.

Well, let's use the "Black Litmus Test" to see if it sounds more like stereotypical racism or just humor:
"In the group text, they joked that I would go out and play basketball all day, only listen to rap and hip hop, coming back late at night, and even joked that they should all move out because of me..."
Would this be an okay use of humor to ease their discomfort?
