I honestly get annoyed at how people get over the simplest things. Bigotry and Entertainment are two totally different things. I thought the outfits were cool!
besides you think that was bad, go watch Undercover Brother

I agree that people can overreact about these things, but I don't think they're offended because Outkast was trying to make fun of them - especially because they weren't. They are offended because of the way the media in general treats their culture: as a commodity and sometimes a joke. That's not bigotry OR pure entertainment - that's degrading. And you don't have to be a racist/sexist/whateverist to degrade a person or a people.
