Washington — Today, Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC)
Chair Judy Chu (CA-27) and Chair Emeritus Mike Honda (CA-17) released the
following statements condemning the Kids Table segment aired on Jimmy Kimmel
Live:
Representative Judy Chu (CA-27), CAPAC Chair: “I understand the jovial
nature of a comedy show, but jokes about killing over 1 billion Chinese
people are no laughing matter. This type of xenophobic rhetoric can cause
dangerous ramifications for the Asian American community. Although the show
’s producers could not have predicted how the children would respond, Jimmy
Kimmel and the ABC Network should not have allowed the segment to air.
Comments referring to genocide should not be repeated, laughed at, or
tolerated. I am disappointed Mr. Kimmel and ABC chose to air a segment that
clearly crossed a line and the Asian American community deserves an apology.”
Representative Mike Honda (CA-17), Chair Emeritus: “The ABC network
recently allowed comedian Jimmy Kimmel to air a skit in which a group of
children suggested that "we kill everyone in China" to avoid paying back the
national debt. Some things are funny, but racial hatred is not one of them
. These statements, left unchecked, promote intolerance, and I am concerned
that the producers of Mr. Kimmel's program allowed this to air. Children may
not know better, but producers and ABC's management should.
“An apology must be issued, and I sincerely hope the network uses better
judgment in the future. As a Japanese-American who was put in an internment
camp during World War II, I have firsthand experience of this country's
discriminatory intolerance, prejudice, and hysteria. Having worked hard in
Congress to promote diversity and acceptance, I believe Mr. Kimmel's program
is an affront not only to the Chinese, but to all who promote human dignity
