Do the Coen's films have memorable black characters?

I have just watched Blood Simple now, for the first time. The black bartender, whose name is Meurice is very memorable, probably because
he seems to be the only sane person in the whole movie.
. The rest of the cast is great too, especially Emmet Walsh. -

Memorable:
Marva Munson, from The Ladykillers
Sheriff Wyner, from The Ladykillers
Othar, from The Ladykillers
The Blind Seer, from O Brother Where Art Thou
The singing gravediggers, from O Brother Where Art Thou
Memorable, but kinda annoying:
Gawain, from The Ladykillers.
Fairly low-key:
Meurice, from Blood Simple.
Tommy, from O Brother Where Art Thou
Moses, from The Hudsucker Proxy -

Sure, there was the blind man in O Brother Where Art Thou, the old woman in Ladykillers and the janitor in Hudsucker Proxy
Not very prominent characters, it would be interesting to see a Coens film with a black lead actor.
