Stepin Fetchit (1902-1985) was an African-American actor and comedian.
Fetchit had performed at the Cotton Club in New York City, although Benny Russell noted with irony that while African-Americans could perform there, no African-Americans were allowed to enter the club as customers at the time. (DS9 novelization: Far Beyond the Stars)
