Dick Gregory tornou-se pioneiro, durante os conturbados anos 1960, em fazer comédia stand-up "sem barreiras", onde criticava abertamente o racismo e o preconceito nos Estados Unidos. Começou se apresentando em clubes segregados apenas para negros até 1961 e depois tornou-se o comediante negro de maior sucesso na época, inclusive com a audiência branca, se apresentando em programas na televisão e gravando discos de comédia.
