Definition of America

Trey Knowles' “Definition of America” is a bold stand-up comedy piece that jokes about how people in America define their identity through false idols. Trey humorously points out that when people don't know who they are, the devil is quick to offer them a definition—often one rooted in negativity and behavior opposite of God. Through stories about his friend Definition, Trey exposes how negative labels shape identity, while also diving into the deeper reason behind the “Definition of America,” connecting it to the mistreatment of Black people and the lasting impact of slavery. Blending sharp humor with truth, Trey challenges audiences to laugh, reflect, and rethink where identity really comes from.
