This is where we get to meet Mr. Brown, who Michael, of course, thinks is made up just for the racism seminar. He's brought in to address a bit by Chris Rock that Michael repeats at the office.
I like how he tries to get you to think that he came up with Diversity Day but as the sentence rolls on, we find out he had no clue.
Mr. Deckard is a very good client for Jim that can't just seem to buy paper. In fact, in just about every episode, clients really have to try and buy paper from Dunder Mifflin.
Let's talk about Michael. He spends the whole episode trying to convince the office workers that his comments were not racist, they were funny. And he has a good point. Jokes are offensive, that's what makes them jokes, right? He does this quite often. And really, Michael isn't racist, he just wants a level playing field in the joke telling business. We all know that certain segments of society are not allowed to make certain jokes about another part of society but the jokes are perfectly acceptable within the circle. He just wants equality. He's fighting for his rights just as much as others fight for theirs. His just happen to be jokes.
So Mr. Brown roleplays the incident and somehow Michael manages to repeat the offense in front of everyone again. I love the dedication he has to comedy. No matter how inappropriate the joke, he will tell it with everything he can muster. "Whatch you want, cookie?"
