Making people who don’t agree with you laugh by Athena Kugblenu
I have been performing comedy for over six years. In that time, over hundreds of shows to certainly thousands of people, I can count on one hand the occasions I have had an audience who looks and feels like they might be just like me. This isn’t just an observation on race (I’m African/Indian mixed). This is an observation on gender, politics, class, up-bringing and in life experience overall.
