Colin Quinn Talks Race Relations & His New Book On Howard Stern

Comedian Colin Quinn is best know for his work on "Saturday Night Live" and the show "Remote Control."

He recently stopped by Howard Stern's Sirius XM Radio show to talk about race relations and his new book "The Coloring Book: A Comedian Solves Race Relations in America."

After his introduction and a comment from Robin Quivers on his new look, they dove into the discussion of Quinn's book.

Stern was caught off-guard by Quinn's knowledge of race relations and even said that "it could be dangerous for white people to talk about black people."

"Howard said that the room can get very tense when you talk about race now," according to MarksFriggin. "Howard said he identifies 3 types of black people.

He said the first group is black people who like white people. Colin said they like being around them and that's just the way it is. Colin said there is a second group who like both white and black people."

Quinn stated that President Obama fit in the second category. Stern then asserted that there are black people who don't like white people and they don't care about Chris Brown battering Rihanna.

When Stern asked Quinn why he's trying to teach the world his reply was that he doesn't really know but he felt people were acting like there was a racial discussion going on and it's not.

Quinn flat out said that people just hate each other.

Quinn was recently featured in Esquire for "The Coloring Book: A Comedian Solves Race Relations in America." He told Esquire that the catalyst for the book was his book deal brought up the idea by saying, "How about my favorite subject, ethnicity."

"It's one of those subjects that is not supposed to be discussed, but it's the only thing I'm interested in: ethnicity," said Quinn in the Esquire interview.

Stern and his friend Quinn continued on a wide array of subjects that included discussion of the 40th Anniversary Saturday Night Live celebration show, that he also discussed with David Spade on yesterday's show.
