Host Debra (Heidi Gardner) – “What’s a potato hole?”
Host Unnamed (Andrew Dismukes) – “For the love of God, man, tell us what a potato hole is.”
Willie T. Hawkins (Dave Chappelle) “A potato hole is a hole slaves would dig to hide their food and possessions from plantation owners. What little these slaves had, they would keep in their potato hole. Even if they knew if their masters found these potato holes they’d be whipped, beaten, torn limb from limb, The potato hole was their last vestige of humanity and over time became to symbolize resilience of black life in the face of white oppression. That’s what potato hole is, bitch.”
