[S2] Hari Kondabolu: Comedy Is Therapeutic but Not Therapy

  • Summary

  • “My mom has a very dark sense of humor. I think that’s how I learned how to recycle pain.”

    Hari Kondabolu is not your average stand-up comedian. He has a Masters in Human Rights and worked as an immigrants rights organizer — all of which you hear in his writing. His jokes simultaneously bring about discomfort and a nod of the head, without sounding preachy. He uses comedy as a coping mechanism for addressing complex issues of race, identity, and ethnicity post 9/11.
