"Saturday Night Live" is catching backlash for a recent sketch about vaccine hesitancy within the Black community. This week’s episode tapped "Judas and the Black Messiah" actor Daniel Kaluuya as the host, who opened his monologue with a joke about racism in the British royal family.
After that, he participated in a sketch that now has some doctors and people within the Black community crying foul. The sketch featured Kaluuya playing a doctor and the host of a game show titled "Will You Take It?" In it, his family members, played by cast members Kenan Thompson, Chris Redd, Ego Nwodim and Punkie Johnson, were offered large sums of money simply to agree to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
