chris rock's joke about her shaved head, did it beyond an insensitivity to her medical condition, alopecia issues surrounding black beauty? >> yes. i appreciate mark so much for getting the conversation in this direction. the decentering of black women in time has been ubiquitous. we have been maligned and attacked so much that we have internalized these external pressures, these social constructs, and we have started to use them one against each other in the black community. calling someone bald headed in the black community, critiquing black women's hair, that is a real red zone. and the language itself is a violent act. chris rock should not be exonerated for what he committed onstage, it was a verbal assault. to minimize it anday it was just a joke is actually treading into dangerous territory, because it gives a cultural permission to that global audience, to people outside the african-american community to commit the same kind of aggressions against black women. calling them out about their physical appearance, marginalizing the way that they appear. this has been a tool used to oppr

have a bit of a sympathy for a guy defending his wife because he thought chris rock was mocking her alopeciaow about. there was clearly a big misunderstanding. you should not have gone up and whacked him. but why is nobody talking about what the female host of the show did to those guys on stage? i'm personally offended, i am personally offended by the hypocrisy. >> candidate come i don't know about you but i'm still traumatized by that slap around the world. amy schumer is with me in that regard. she said still triggered and traumatized. i love my friend, chris rock, and believe he handled it like a pro. start up there and gave an oscar to his friend and the whole thing was so disturbing. i don't know if i'm going to be able to sleep this weekend. [laughter] >> nobody would have been talking about they are hosting if this hadn't happened. most people use to watch the academy awards. you would have academy awards parties and they don't anymore. they binge watch things like netflix and so it's not a big cultural signpost the way it used to be. so it is irrelevant. the only thing that made it

now a long time friend of chris rock tells abc news that rock didn't know about jada's condition alopecia which causes hair loss. for the first time we're hearing from the lead producer of the oscars about what happened during sunday's show. he's talking only to abc about the behind the scenes chaos abc news reporter morgan norwood has the story. oscar's 2022 producer will packer is opening up about what happened behind the scenes on hollywood's biggest night after actor will smith slapped comedian chris rock on stage. he sat down for an exclusive interview with abc's tj holmes. i've never felt so immediately devastated like i did at that moment packer who watched from behind the scenes thought it was a bit but then rock confirmed that he'd been slapped by smith the lapd showed up ready to take will smith. city they were saying this is battery. we will go get him. we are prepared. we're prepared to get him right now. you can press charges we can arrest them as they were talking chris was he was being very dismissive of those options. the academy says the -- will smith to leave in which he

she suffers from hair loss condition alopecia tmz reports that rock did not know she had this medicalsmith laughed at the joke at first, but he's still stormed the stage and slapped rock. chris rock declined to file charges and smith was allowed to stand the oscars and accept his award for best actor. the academy apologized for how it handled the incident, saying, quote during our telecast. we do not adequately address the situation in the room for this. we are sorry this was an opportunity for us to set an example for our guests. viewers in our academy family around the world and we fell short unprepared for the m precedented and a brief statement will smith said he accepts and respects the academy's decision. reporting in los angeles, christina coleman fox news earlier on ktvu. we spoke with tmz's harvey levin about the academy's decision to ban smith. he says the punishment doesn't surprise him. this was really a unique event. i don't remember anything like that ever at the oscars happening. i mean, this really was a crime. so um, you know, there are people who do things outside of

i don't think he knew that jayda pickett smith had alopecia.i don't often quote him comedian made a point that there is not older churchgoing woman -- that aside he said it's not them that are the problem, churchgoing women, it's the young people. it's the millennials. i didn't know, maybe you have a thought on that. the young woke stirs are the ones that are censored. >> offense now means give me something. that is what happens. comedy clubs are not supposed to work that way. when you're at a comedy club -- let's say you want to see me at the tampa improv thursday night may 5th. i don't know. the whole premise of the comedy club is that we all agree were going to buy overpriced water down drinks and not take our lives seriously. a comedy club is supposed to be escapism from the real world. we have wound up in this place where we are catering to the outrage crowd and they are not the consumer. the people they got to comedy clubs are not doing the boycotts online. the people that don't actually consume. that's where comedy took a bad term. for a
