ETA I think I'm going to be covering music now too. I have two songs so far, Kanye's Jesus Walks and also Modern Day Slavery by Immortal Technique feat. Joell Ortiz. Does anybody know of any songs off the top of their heads that mention slavery?
Black people can you help me with my project

For my Af-Am lit class my group is doing a project on blacks in pop culture and how they handle the topic of slavery. We are covering books, art, film,
comedy, and some other areas I forgot. I am going to discuss either comedy or film. Can you name any films or comedians off the top of your head that discuss
slavery? For comedy I think we have Bill Cosby, Eddie Murphy, Eddie Griffin, and Dave Chappelle so far.

Hmm... I think so. I should ask my group. If you have white comedians go ahead and list them.

No I need comedians and films, not comedians and actors. Sorry if I was vague.
