 Meanwhile , James " Toofer " Spurlock ( Keith Powell ) is upset that Tracy Jordan ( Tracy Morgan ) is cross @-@ dressing on TGS because it is demeaning to African @-@ Americans . After a bit of objection , Toofer convinces Tracy to stop , handing the female character over to Josh Girard ( Lonny Ross ) . Once Josh 's character is successful , Tracy is upset with Toofer . Liz convinces Toofer to work with Tracy . As they work together , Tracy gets upset with Toofer 's supposed lack of blackness , and endearingly calls Toofer a racial slur . The next morning , Jack Donaghy ( Alec Baldwin ) , Liz , Toofer , and Tracy sit down for a meeting about Tracy 's vocabulary from the previous night . Tracy and Jack point out that the African @-@ American community has adopted the word to deprive it of its meaning . In trying to reach out to Tracy , Toofer says the word again but because of his perceived cultural whiteness , everyone , including Tracy , is offended in a way they weren 't when Tracy used the term . Tracy and Toofer attend sensitivity training , start arguing , and in the process develop a new sketch for TGS . When show starts running short on time , Liz offers Tracy the option to either air the sketch or one from the Star Jones cooking show , Tracy chooses the latter . Toofer is initially upset , but agrees with Tracy 's decision when he finds the sketch funny .
