Freaked Out and Small is the third album by The Presidents of the United States of America. It was released in 2000 by MusicBlitz Records, which was a web based label.

They were the last recorded group of Africans deported to the United States as slaves. Timothy Meaher, an established Mobile businessman, sent the slave ship, the Clotilda , to Africa, on a bet that he could "bring a shipful of niggers right into Mobile Bay under the officers' noses." He won the bet.
