don't act like Jimmy Kimmel holding up Sunny Pawar whilst the theme from The Lion King played was cute and not racist

Jesus Christ Jimmy Kimmel, can you not use a little brown kid as a prop for an Disneyfied African-themed punchline? #Oscars

I was actually liking #oscars2017 and then @jimmykimmel held up Sunny Pawar like The Lion King and the feeling of racist ick returned. #smh
