W. Kamau Bell just may be one of the coolest people alive today. Not only is this Emmy-winning host of CNN’s The United Shades of America one of the world’s most incisive social critics, but he’s also a right funny fellow and the author of the bestselling The Awkward Thoughts of W. Kamau Bell: Tales of a 6’ 4”, African American, Heterosexual, Cisgender, Left-Leaning, Asthmatic, Black and Proud Blerd, Mama’s Boy, Dad, and Stand-Up Comedian. Plus, you have to love a man who hosts a podcast titled “Denzel Washington is the Greatest Actor of All Time Period.” (It’s on iTunes. Go download it. Now.) Hear his so-true-they’re-painful observations and witticisms during W. Kamau Bell’s Authors! Authors! event. $15. 7-10pm. Thursday, November 16.
