Some historians claim that black-faced minstrel shows have roots going back to the Middle Ages. The American minstrel show that was popular before and after the American Civil War, however, is more directly traced to a performer named Thomas D. Rice. "Daddy" Rice began performing in black face and singing and dancing the "Jim Crow" in the 1830s.
