His acting was always pretty much racist but then again so was Carrol O'Connors. I think he was very funny taking the era in it's context.

Sad to hear!

RIP Sherman Hemsley. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure I ever saw The Jeffersons. I think I was more familiar with him as Deacon Frye in Amen.

Sherman and Carrol both taught how not to be, by example.
the jeffersons and all in the family gave america a look in the mirror.

to Sherman.

and it was done in such a way that the racist had to laugh at their own racism, thus becoming aware of it.

Not said as eloquently, but that's what I was aiming at. They looked more like idiots than what they were saying.
