What Makes Us Laugh? Event Highlights

Comedy can take many forms. Whether through TV shows, movies, stand-up routines, or improv, comedy has the unique power to impact how we see ourselves, others around us, and the society in which we live. As part of BEL’s “Creating New American Stories of Us” series, this virtual event will explore some of the ways comedy is showing up on screens, stages, and in communities across our country, sometimes serving to deepen our divides and further alienate Americans from each other, and sometimes doing just the opposite.
These are a few of the highlights from our June 4th event on 'What Makes Us Laugh?'
