White Zombies

Key & Peele (2013) Episode 6

During a zombie apocalypse, two black protagonists (played by Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele) discover that the racist zombies are only attacking white people and completely ignoring them. As they run through a chaotic scene filled with zombies chasing terrified white victims, they realize they can walk safely among the undead. The sketch includes a memorable moment where zombie parents stop their young zombie daughter from eating the two black men, demonstrating how racism is taught rather than innate. The sketch provides sharp social commentary on racism while maintaining the absurdist horror-comedy tone that Key & Peele is known for.

Running to safety is easier when the zombies want nothing to do with you.
