WKB Curve in NYC on 10/21/10!

Hey NYC people! I'll see you next week Thursday, October 21st @8pm for another edition of my show, The W. Kamau Bell Curve: Ending Racism in About an Hour. And this time it is a New York's premiere comedy spot The Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater --- or UCB, if you're nasty... and if you don't already associate UCB with The University of California at Berkeley.

The best part is that it is only a recession busting FIVE BUCKS!!! WOOOHOOOO! What a bargain! Click here for details.

Racism will be ended for less than the cost of a vente mocha with an extra shot of espresso! I hope to see you there. And if not I hope you let your NYC people know. Thanks!

I'll be in NYC for s couple of weeks and I'm booking other shows, stand-up and otherwise, so there will be many other opportunities to see me there. if you know of any, forward them along. Thanks again.

7x7 Magazine names me SF's Best Comedian 2010

7x7 Magazine --- a publication that caters to the elite (umm... rich white folks --- not that there is anything wrong with that... to quote Seinfeld) of San Francisco --- names yours truly the Best Comedian of 2010. Next up, me and Gavin Newsom will be partying like it's our birthdays. I'm still in NYC, so somebody save me a few copies.

Best Comedian

We need W. Kamau Bell to urge people to do educational, evolutionary things like “Make a Black Friend” and to call out the follies and frenzies of so-called post-racial America. The bravest and smartest SF comic and solo performer to tackle race, as well as a stealth educator and director, Bell will go down in history as the first comedian to tell an Obama joke (on the Comedy Channel, circa 2005), toasted by everyone from Time Out New York to Boots Riley of the Coup to Margaret Cho (who describes him as “the most important guy doing comedy right now. ... Think Bill Hicks but slightly taller”). July 14, Punch Line Comedy Club, 444 Battery St., 415-397-7573, punchlinecomedyclub.com, wkamaubell.com

The W. Kamau Bell Curve HITS New York City Aug 17-29

Making its New York City Debut August 17-29! CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS

Black president or not, racism continues to make a comeback in America. Whether it’s Rush Limbaugh’s daily treason OR town hall meetings that look like casual Friday Ku Klux Klan rallies OR Henry Louis Gates getting arrested for having a sticky door OR people who don't understand that a 1961 Hawaiian birth certificate = American citizenship OR Sonia Sotomayor being accused of racism by a racist OR the continued broadcast of BET --- racism hasn’t run this rampant since Martin Luther King, Jr. had that dream. Well, comedian W. Kamau Bell is here to make (non)sense of it all, with a seamless mix of stand-up comedy, multimedia, and personal stories. According to Comedy Central, Kamau told the very first joke about Barack Obama way back in 2005. Established in 2007, the Curve is constantly updated in order to be as fresh as the news is skewers.
