Get PROFILED (in the best possible way) TOMORROW at Littlefield. Twenty-one comedians, yes that’s a BIG number, will be offering the audience their best case for reparations in celebration of Juneteenth, also known as “Freedom Day,” the holiday that commemorates both the June 19, 1865 announcement of the abolition of slavery in Texas by the Union (yes folks, that’s two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation) and the general emancipation of African Americans slaves throughout the former Confederacy. The show will be co-hosted by Marcela Onyango and comic & attorneyAndrea Coleman who will pick the comedian with the BEST CASE for reparations. And what will the winner receive? Your loving adoration, of course (but, seriously, I have no idea). The Profiled: The Case for Reparations lineup includes:
Mamoudou N’Diaye
