Dick Gregory deals with a racist audience

He was accidently booked by the Playboy Club, Chicago to play a convention of white businessmen…..It was a matter of moments before a refrigerator salesman had stood up and called him the N… word.

The comedian responded by saying that he was paid $50 compensation every time this happened, and urged the entire audience to get to their feet and call him that.
