Race, Society and Comedic Relief

This episode of Chappelle Show, titled, "I know black people" is a game show parody about knowing "Black People". Chappelle uses cliche stereotypes as his questions. After watching all the African American sitcoms in class- such as Good Times, it triggered this episode. One of the questions was reciting the lyrics to the Good Times theme song. This sheds light on the globalization of black culture and its impact on different communities. Some contestants were well versed in black "street" culture while others stared blankly into the fake game show hosts face. It is so funny but also an insightful on black culture and stereotyping.
