What happens

Congo Jazz is a 1930 American animated comedy short film directed by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising. It is the second film in the Looney Tunes series starring Bosko. It was released as early as July 26, 1930. Congo Jazz was the first cartoon to feature Bosko's falsetto voice, provided by Bernard B. Brown, that he would use for the bulk of the series' run; the previous Bosko short, Sinkin' in the Bathtub, had used a derisive African-American dialect. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
