MLK reacts to lack of diversity at the Oscars in SNL skit

Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

SNL didn’t shy away from the Oscar controversy last night. Keenan Thompson reprised his impersonation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who in the skit appears to a white teen stumped on his school report on the civil rights leader.

The teen, played by Pete Davidson, gives Dr. King an update of where society is today, and Dr. King isn’t too happy about it.

Check out the SNL skit below and tell us what you think.
