Even before Black athletes began speaking out in disagreement with Colin Kaepernicks silent and harmless protest in response to police brutality and shootings, the tap-dancing coon parade has been growing in numbers. We’ve taken a look at the 12 Biggest Coons In The Game, aimed at Black entertainers and figures who love to shuck and jive.

The number of people we could name has grown just this month alone, with beloved Hall of Fame boxer George Foreman and Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy joining the fray to throw jabs at Kaep. It isn’t just baffling that these Black figures spoke their opinions, it’s the fact they’re aiming their criticism at a man who is actually risking all he has to help others that look like them.

Then there’s a bevy of Black public figures who did their little shuffle foot routine when President Barack Obama was in office, and it goes without saying that we’re surely going to miss some people because it’s been THAT many over the years that jumped the Black pride ship.

Hit the flip to see the 12 Biggest Coons In The Game, along with the varying reasons we’re slapping them with the white bread and red kool-aid designation.

Herman Cain

It’s Herman Cain, what else do we need to say? The stories we’ve done on him in the past should suffice.

Uncle Ben Carson

And to think, the current HUD Secretary used to be a brain surgeon.

After everything he’s been through, including racist barbs and his own self-inflicted damage, Vick is the last person to comment on Kaep.

Stacey Dash

 

We’ve already exhausted our Clueless jokes on this lost bird.

Captain Stabby has been capin’ for Massa for a minute.

Charles Barkley

Race expert Charles Barkley and his big, fat opinions on how Black people should behave have gotten worse over time.

Boxing legend and grill master George Foreman should never, ever speak for Black people again.

LeSean McCoy

The irony of McCoy being on this list is that he was once outspoken about racism and injustice.

Jim Brown

Jim Brown, this one broke our heart. And he’s on Cheeto Trump’s squad.

Cuba Gooding

The veteran actor embarrassed us all by donning a KFC chicken bucket on his head. Don’t tell us it was just jokes.

Paris Dennard

We could have put just about any Black GOP member in this slot, but Mr. Dennard is really aiming to be the top GOP coon of them all.

Jason Whitlock

The Fox Sports analyst should be at the top of the list for all the tap dancing he’s done in favor of being a shoe shine.
