The song Chocolate Rain deals with the historic and systematic oppression of black people. E.g, in the justice system the lyrics say:

Chocolate Rain
The same crime has a higher price to pay
Chocolate Rain
He judge and jury swear it's not the face

The popularity of the song has encouraged fans and critics alike to make remixes andparodies of the video. Remixes include a Darth Vader remix and a club mix.
