Parody is just poking fun at something with no purpose. The episode of the Simpson’s on the Odyssey was a perfect example of a parody. The clip of the "Do the Right Thing" is a good satire. It has a white man pronouncing how his favorite celebrities are all black but yet he still uses the word nigger. Afterwards
