One engine on a plane is failing...

So the pilot comes over the speaker and says 'Unfortunately the plane won't be able to handle all of the passengers without crashing. We will have to start removing passengers from the plane giving them parachutes and pushing them out until we reach our ideal flying weight. We will choose people alphabetically by their ethnicity. We'll start with Africans!'

A small dark skinned boy pulls on his dad's sleeve and says 'Isn't that us?' and the dad replied ''shhh not now'

'Next up: Blacks!'

Again the boy asks if they're going now and also again the father disregards the sons inquiry

'Any Colored People are next!'

Very impatient the boy bugs his dad for an answer as to why they haven't gone yet. His dad's response was:

'Well son, today and only today, we're ni**ers!'
