Cultural commentator, radio and TV host, and comedian W. Kamau Bell
combines humor with astute social commentary in programs that have
earned him a devoted following as "the most promising new talent in
political comedy in many years" (The New York Times). The Berkeley
resident and self-proclaimed "blerd"—or, black nerd—is host of the
Emmy-winning CNN series United Shades of America, where he travels the
country, engaging diverse subcultures on contentious issues like
immigration, white nationalism, and gang violence. At this hometown
appearance, Bell discusses his career, his podcast empire, and his
recently published first book, The Awkward Thoughts of W. Kamau Bell.
