W. Kamau Bell meets the KKK in United Shades of America
Some content in this episode may be distressing to some viewers.W. Kamau Bell heads down south to meet with members of the Ku Klux Klan looking to rebrand their message.
In his own words: “I’m getting email from the Ku Klux Klan. It’s OK though. It’s totally my fault, because I’m the one who went and paid them a visit. I even went to a cross lighting. (They don’t call it a cross burning, like the rest of us.) And it all happened in the first episode of my CNN show “United Shades of America”. The idea behind the series is to send an African-American comedian to places that you wouldn’t expect him to go or to places where he absolutely shouldn’t go.”
Follow comedian and political gadfly W. Kamau Bell as he explores the far corners of our country and its various groups and subcultures.
