SNL Host Dave Chappelle Gives White People a Valuable Trump Lesson
Pretty incredible day,” Dave Chappelle said at the top of his Saturday Night Live monologue this week.
The comedian began by talking about his great-grandfather, who was born a slave in South Carolina. He told the emotional story of how he learned to read after being freed and became a leader at the AME church, but then things took a turn.
“I thought about him all day today because I wish I could see him now. And I wish he could see me. Because I wonder what he would say. This week, I flew to New York on a private jet. Netflix started streaming a show that bears his name, Chappelle’s Show. HBO Max is streaming it. And I didn’t get paid for any of it.”
