Dave Chappelle called out racism on Saturday Night Live, just hours after Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump to become the next U.S. president. During a 16-minute monologue, the Washington D.C. native spoke viscerally about his ancestral legacy and the COVID-19 pandemic but mostly focuses on racial issues through ironic cultural commentaries.

In November 2016, Chappelle famously hosted Saturday Night Live after Trump had defeated Hillary Clinton in the U.S. presidential election. The comic addressed the shock that many people were feeling at the time, but closed his monologue by expressing his willingness to give Trump a chance and that the president-elect should similarly do the same for "the historically disenfranchised." Less than one year later, Chappelle changed his opinion, stating (via The Hollywood Reporter) "I f***ed up. Sorry." For the comedian's 2020 Saturday Night Live monologue, various talking points cross over from his first go-round, most notably the on-going racial and political tension in America.

Chappelle's Saturday Night Live monologue began with contextual information about his background and perspective as a Black man in America. The comic discussed his great-grandfather who worked as a slave and then shifted to the recent past with a joke about not being paid for Chappelle's Show streaming deals. Chappelle eventually ramped up his comedic tone by recalling life before COVID-19 and how there was a mass shooting "every week" in America. "Thank God for COVID," he says, "something had to lock these murderous whites up and keep 'em in the house." From there, Chappelle built upon the joke with a sociopolitical commentary about the perception of Blacks in America and the realities faced by many white people who refuse to change their ways.

The middle sections of Chappelle's Saturday Night Live monologue focused on COVID-19 culture, racial stereotypes, and outrage culture. The host recalled performing rural stand-up shows near his Ohio home, and being judged by white farmers who speak with a "twang." Chappelle then made a correlation between casual racism and the spread of the Coronavirus with a one-liner about poor white people who refuse to wear masks: “You wear a mask at the clan rally, wear it at the Walmart too." In another charged bit, Chappelle referenced stereotypes used against Black people in the '80s, specifically by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan, and applied them to white heroin addicts of the present. "Did I trigger you?" Chappelle later asks the Saturday Night Live audience, shortly before stating "It's like a woke meeting in here."

Chappelle ended his 2020 Saturday Night Live monologue slightly different than in 2016. This time around, he once again discussed partisan politics and asked the audience to stay "humble." Chappelle also addressed the pain that so many Americans have been through and about division, drawing a loaded parallel to how Black identities feel in 2020. “But here’s the difference between me and you. You guys hate each other for that [division], and I don’t hate anybody. I just hate that feeling. That’s what I fight through. That’s what I suggest you fight through. You got to find a way to live your life. You got to find a way to forgive each other. You got to find a way to find joy in your existence despite that feeling.” Rather than closing with a heavy message about politics, Chappelle circled back to a previous joke about how whites can receive valuable life lessons from Blacks.
