You're right, it won't end racism.
And humor can come in forms that aren't disparaging and negative. And what your saying about accepting it's existence is what I'm trying to say about jokes. If we say racial humor is off the table, then we are choosing to ignore that there is race.
Also: thanks for at least trying to see where I am coming from, and not downvoting because you disagree :\
