So - this Sesame Street racism thing on the National News


Jul 20, 2022, 2:34 PM

this morning. The family of these little girls has lawyered up. Is there even a 1% chance the person in this Rosita suit thought - "No. I'm not high fiving any black kids." ?

I suspect they have been trained not to hug or not to acknowledge anyone who is over that yellow line. (If that's the case - why didn't the Sesame folks just say that?)

Or maybe the character didn't see them and waved at someone standing behind them.

Surely every perceived slight can't actually be racism. Or can it?

Rosita is a Muppet character on the children's television series Sesame Street. Fluent in both American English and Mexican Spanish, she is the first regular bilingual Muppet on the show. Rosita comes from Mexico and likes to play the guitar.

an understatement to say not a good look, Sure looked racist. If not, then got a lot off explaining to rationalize dismissal waves without stopping, explaining and directing the girls back behind the yellow line.

is it a crime to be racist?

what's the racist part?

Breaking, Two kids at parade skipped over by muppet character, tune in at 11 for more details.

"Looked racist" - I guess that's the main problem.


Jul 20, 2022, 3:24 PM [ in reply to Whatever. Saw video on news and watched it again. It’s… ]

Hearing the guy at the end say "gotta step back" is telling.

It stinks - but I'm sure they have rules about crossing that yellow line - there are moving vehicles in that parade.

Just because something looks racist doesn't mean it is...and it made the national news. Good Lord.

Can tell intent so fall back to visual observation. Hence used the term “looked”.


Jul 20, 2022, 4:05 PM

On second thought, the girls should have been arrested for being a foot or two over the yellow line _ or at least received physical discipline from a billy club or maybe even a taser. The safety of the Sesame Street character is definitely a consideration and illegal trespassing shouldn’t go unpunished! F the little criminals.

Same way black/white kids are made. So, no racism exists.

While one would hope that it wasn't because of racism, something similar to/worse than this has happened before.

You libs are so easily swayed it is ridiculous. The first thing I'd want to see is five minutes of video of the character walking around, or more if it is available. In addition, you have to ask the person in the suit about it.

Saying "it looks racist" is an asinine conclusion to make based on 10 seconds of video from one view.

the character like 15 feet ago, then ran around in front of it and tried to stop it again to get another picture, and the teenager in the suit was like "GTFO with that nonsense". Who knows.

pass over my 6 year old son for an autograph when he came back to town for a game in 2010. Totally racist, and my son was even wearing his crappy Bills jersey. I'm suing.
