    This interview is from 17 years ago, 2006! The American Office had premiered the year before; I always remember the legendary 2nd episode, "Diversity Day".
    Michael had been going around the office repeating the infamous Chris Rock monologue about living next door to blacks, and was then ordered to take racial tolerance training.
    It was unlike any other episode of tv I had ever seen. And it's why, in these times of Cancel Culture and racial sensitivity, you won't see this episode anymore in reruns. Our loss.

      I would guess it wasn't due to the idea of Michael repeating Chris Rock's stand-up concerning blacks, but rather when Michael starts imitating an Indian convenience store owner (like Apu) to Kelly's face.
