Dave Chappelle released an unexpected and powerful 30-minute comedy special on YouTube late on Thursday night entitled “8:46” the amount of time that officer Derek Chauvin spent on the neck of George Floyd before killing Floyd a few weeks ago, sparking protests nationwide and around the world that are still continuing through this week. During the set, Chappelle discussed what was going on throughout the country in the past few weeks and he also commended his buddy LeBron James, for continuing to speak out on injustices, even when folks like Fox News host Laura Ingraham try to demean or diminish his speech with terms like “shut up and dribble.”
“LeBron James once said something about racism and Laura Ingraham, which I will say publicly anywhere anytime is a [EXPLETIVE] told one of Ohio’s greatest residents ever to ‘Shut up and dribble.'”
Chappelle continued, “This[EXPLETIVE] told my friend to shut up and dribble.”
“My friend is the best at something. And this bitch is not the best at anything. Just a regular-ass white bitch with a platform. And I use the word [EXPLETIVE] all the time because.”
Chappelle criticized Ingraham, as many people did, for defending Drew Brees and his right to an opinion while slamming James and Kevin Durant for doing the same a few years ago.
