Comedian Jermaine Fowler appeared on Comedy Central’s ‘@Midnight’ program last night, where he drew the attention/ire of some HBCU advocates with his late-night dig at black colleges. *WARNING* Video contains explicit language.
Fowler, who is slated to create and star in a CBS sitcom next fall and will debut a Showtime special this evening, then got into it with HBCU students and alumni via Twitter.
Insensitivity on Fowler’s part, or hyper-sensitivity from HBCU supporters? You be the judge.
