Dave Chappelle BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Dave Chappelle has been riding a wave of renewed attention and big headlines over the past few days, both for his sharp takes on politics and his deep involvement in creative and philanthropic projects. In recent news, a vintage 2017 video of Chappelle roasting Donald Trump’s economic strategies—sarcastically calling them "high people ideas"—has gone viral with powerful timing, as the world reacts to President Trump’s new tariffs and Elon Musk himself signals agreement on social media. The resurfaced footage has Chappelle in fine form, joking, "Leave that job in China where it belongs. None of us want to work that hard. I want to wear Nikes—I don’t want to make them." The clip, now making the rounds thanks to major Twitter commentary including Musk and political strategist Claude Taylor, reestablishes Chappelle as a voice with uncanny relevance to today’s economic anxieties, reminding audiences that his blunt insight can set the tone for national debate, and inspiring a raft of think pieces dissecting his prescience as recently reported by AOL.

On the business and philanthropy front, Chappelle has announced a return to the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival next week, where a screening of his documentary will double as a major benefit for the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, specifically to raise funds for the Donal Leace Endowment in honor of his late mentor and teacher. Ebony confirms this event, signaling Chappelle’s persistent commitment
