Racial Slur
In “Anjelah Johnson – Nail Salon,” video, Johnson’s performance of racial stereotyping as her basis for humor is inappropriate when making fun of Vietnamese accents. Johnson’s reenactment of the conversation with the Vietnamese manicurist has been displayed on the Internet. Considering that audiences laughed at the Vietnamese accents, this was embarrassing when Johnson reenacted her visit to the Vietnamese nail salon. Her show exemplifies racial stereotyping in a comedy setting toward Vietnamese Americans.
