In HOW TO MAKE WHITE PEOPLE LAUGH, Farsad shares her personal experiences growing up as the "Other" in an American culture that has no time for nuance. Writing bluntly and hilariously about the elements of race we are often too politically correct to discuss, Farsad takes a long hard look at the iconography that still shapes our concepts of "black," "white," and "Muslim" in America today and examines what it means when white culture defines the culture. Here she asks, what does it mean to have a hyphenated identity and how can we combat the racism, stereotyping, and exclusion that happens every day? HOW TO MAKE WHITE PEOPLE LAUGH tackles these questions and more with wit, humor, and incisive intellect"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aWomen comedians$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs$2bisacsh 615 0$aWomen comedians 615 7$aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs. 676 $a792.702/8092 686 $aBIO026000$aBIO002000$aHUM003000$2bisacsh 700 $aFarsad$b Negin$01215106 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148590203321 996 $aHow to make white people laugh$92807167 997 $aUNINA
