Black Twitter Slams Isaiah Washington for Chris Rock Comments

The actor advised to 'adapt' to racial profiling.

Driving While Black - Chris Rock recently made headlines for documenting his experiences via selfies of driving while Black, but Isaiah Washington's response to Rock has everyone talking. After suggesting on Twitter that Rock drive a less expensive car and "adapt" to prevent being pulled over, Black Twitter dragged the former Grey's Anatomy star through the mud for his insensitivity and cluelessness of the Black struggle.(Photos from Left: Jason Merritt/Getty Images for Critics' Choice Television Awards, Rob Kim/Getty Images)
