So last night, Comedy Central aired its Roast of James Franco, during which comedians stepped up to a microphone to make fun of the multi-hyphenate actor with every tasteless joke possible. This included all kinds of gay jokes and racist humor, because why not, that's always funny to somebody.
Then it was comedian Aziz Ansari's turn. He used his moment at the dais to call out the evening's lazy-ass racism and homophobia, including the barrage of outdated Indian jokes that were flung his way.
"Those stereotypes are so outdated. My God. There's more Indian dudes doing sitcoms than there are running 7-11s. We are straight up snatching roles from white actors. My last three roles were Randy, Chet and Tom."

Love his take down of all the gay jokes too. Boom.
