Pride & Passion
Premise:
A Laughing Matter is about negotiating the authenticity of Black life in American culture, using stereotypes that peel back the layers of embedded systemic challenges, with hopes of increasing your awareness about marginalized people of color through situation comedies.

​Examine what each sitcom, over a 50-year period, reveals about us.

Meanwhile, don’t choke on the joke!
