About 60 women have come forward accusing Cosby of drugging and raping them. In 2018, Cosby was convicted of three felony counts of aggravated indecent assault, though that conviction was overturned on a technicality in 2021. W.

"[Cosby] was America's dad during The Cosby Show — not Black America's dad, America's dad," he says.
