Fugazzi Grand II : SNL (#514)

514.  (Will Forte's Black History Month ... Feb 21, 2004)

I know this is on netflix, definitely worth finding.





















Tina Fey: February is Black History Month. Here now, with some personal thoughts on the subject, our very own Kenan Thompson. 

Will Forte: Hi, everyone! Happy Black History Month! Wow! 

Tina Fey: Will! Will, where's Kenan? Kenan is supposed to be doing this. 

Will Forte: Uh, yeah, Tina, uh.. Kenan overslept. 

Tina Fey: Well, then.. okay, then, Finesse should be out here. 

Will Forte: Finesse, I believe, is entertaining a lady in his dressing room. 

Tina Fey: Okay.. then, how about Maya

Will Forte: Tina! [ chuckles ] ..it’s not Half-Black History Month. 

Jimmy Fallon: Just let him do the Black History Month piece, Tina. 

Will Forte: Yeah, thank you, Dawg! 

Jimmy Fallon: No problem, dude. 

Will Forte: Okay, first of all, let me start by wishing all the black people here in our audience a happy Black History Month. [ looks around ] Okay.. let's see.. Right there! You! [ points into the audience ] Happy Black History Month! Okay.. where else..? Right there! [ points to another part of the audience ] No? My mistake. Okay.. anywhere else? [ looks around some more ] You! Definitely! Okay. So.. Happy Black History Month, to you, and you - and, sorry again, to you

O-kay. What do I know about black history? Michael Jordan! He's certainly black. Uh.. and I'm proud of him. Not just for what he did on the basketball court, but also for the Michael Jordan steakhouse. Excellent steaks.. from an excellent black. 

Okay.. let's see.. what else about Black History Month..? [ thinking ] Oh! Rap! I love rap! P. Diddy.. Eminem.. Luther Vandross.. 

Tina Fey: Will! Will! Do you know anything about black history? You want to talk about.. Martin Luther King, or civil rights? 

Will Forte: Look, those are great ideas, Dawg! 

Tina Fey: Okay.. I-I'd really like it if you didn't call me "Dawg". 

Will Forte: Oh, I'm sorry, Boo. 

Tina Fey: Yeeeah.. "Boo" is not cool, either.. and you're running out of time. 

Will Forte: Okay. Well, then, I'll cut right to the chase, Tizzlezina Fizzlezey. Okay! Martin Luther King? Yea! Slavery? Boo-oo-oo! End of slavery? Yea! Michael Jordan? Yes! Eminem? Double Yes! and that's Black History Month. Goooooooo, blacks! [ points to audience ] You! And you! Gimme a B! [ no response ] No? Okay! Happy Black History Month, everybody! 

Tina Fey: Will Forte, everybody. Will Forte.
