From watching George Carlin it was really easy to see how comedy can make difficult topics engaging. From our discussion, I took away that starting a conversation about a difficult issue is not the same as healing an issue. Whether or not a joke is healing or even comedic is based on the opinions of the listener.

He explores sensitive topics in an unconventional manner, talking about religion and human rights, he breaks down serious topics in a way that is not minimising the struggles of those involved.

The three videos of George Carlin that we watched all contained criticism, but the subject of the criticism ranged from motivational tapes to Christian beliefs, which lead us to ask whether this type of comedy is appropriate and helpful or if it's offensive and harmful. On one hand, the jokes did get some good laughs and also didn't do much other than state the facts (albeit in an intentionally humorous way), but when talking about the more serious topics, such as religion and rights, there's a chance that somebody who has strong opinions about these topics might be offended by somebody making a joke of them.

Comedy is never a win win situation, cause there will always be people who’ll hate your humour, and few will love it. If people are not receptive, they shouldn’t become a comedy watching audience. Definitely issues like abortion, rights, or even religion are sensitive. But no wrong facts are given. Although yes, jokes should be shared in a thoughtful way !

I think he is a cool person and he tries to spread awareness in a way that makes people comfortable talking about social issues

Hii my thoughts on the topic are that Humor helps us talk about heavy topics like racism sexism homophobia etc. in a light and fun manner than making it serious it helps us talk and tell our point of views in a humorous manner..more importantly laughter heals us..humour/laughing relieves one’s stress and relaxes us if one doesn’t know or doesn’t get humour it can be very difficult for him/her to enjoy life it helps us to be free in our own way and thoughts

I enjoyed the way she used her comedy to bring awareness about a situation she's been through or situations people can relate to.

I think he is a great comedian who can spin sensitive topics into a more digestible piece as well he makes people criticize themselves through comedy without being too hard on themselves. He is not afraid to discuss sensitive issues i.e rights, religion and tackle them with an opinion of his own

I personally believe that through his ability to keep people engaged with quick fire jokes  he is able to spread awareness about issues faced in multiple societies today without making them seem too uncomfortable to address

there’s this really fine balance of having comedy about serious things without allowing those serious things to become the butt of the joke, which i feel donald glover achieves cleverly.

I think she brings up a really important message of how women are judged off of a mans view.  And how women "can't be funny" if a man doesn't view them as funny

He used comedy as a medium for presenting certain issues faced by POC's and women. I wouldn't call this extreme activism but perhaps a subtle/light version of it. He didn't really talk about these issues in a heavy manner which I really enjoyed.

I liked how she approached the conversation of the issue of gender bias. She started it off as a joke and ended it with a joke so that people would stay in the conversation. A lot of times people are not willing to have these hard conversations because they can be uncomfortable, but approaching it in a comedic way allowed her to bring up a really important issue that is often ignored

I really liked how Donald Glover used comedy to approach social issues, and how he used his jokes to bring awareness to domestic violence/violent ex-boyfriends and racist stereotypes.

George Lopez discusses many issues of immigration in his standup. He gave the audience an opportunity to start talking about these serious issues more.

I think the argument for the place of self depreciation in comedy is an extremely interesting one, especially her framing of "humility vs. humiliation". I see the argument from both sides and I liked being able to hear varying opinions on this topic in the breakout rooms

I love how she shed light on an important issue that numerous people face globally and that is the issue of not knowing where you identify on the gender spectrum. I like how her solution to this "issue" was to simply not identify as anything at all, while doing this in a comedic tone.

I liked her sense of humour but i feel that her humour should be directed to an audience that is family friendly and a joke through which she brought awareness about how to enjoy our twenties while being responsible enough not to regret it later.

I enjoyed the way she uses comedy in a relatable way to make her audience laugh. I feel like when she speaks about religion she could be a little more respectful. However, I feel like she knows how to make her audience laugh with things which can be stereotypical or simple but introducing them in a funny way.

I personally like how Lopez was able to use comedy to make the best of negative situations not just in his personal life but in his community as well, it is a great way to spread positivity and teach people how to cope using comedy

I think he brings awareness to stereotypes and how it stimulates racism really well. His energy definitely keeps the audience humbled while he battles a crude issue. Especially given the black history

He approaches serious topics with jokes which is hard to judge as right or wrong since there are jokes that some people find amusing and have a good laugh at. In the other hand a different audience could find these jokes really offensive and insulting

He added comedy to somewhat serious subjects and presented his thoughts successfully. He also talked about known subjects such as Obama, therefore people could gain a more clear understanding of what he was talking about.

her jokes might have been about serious topics but the delivery of the jokes translates the message in a lighter format. we watched videos about religion dating and being in your twenties. and she was generally enjoyable and amusing

I believe that George Lopez has really understood the art of self-criticism, by pointing out flaws and stereotypes of his own ethnicity he has managed to ensure that the tone of his jokes remains to be upbeat and funny whilst also ensuring that it remains family-friendly for everyone and isn't offensive to anyones personal beliefs

Comedy is an amazing medium to talk about a topic as sensitive as GENDER. Hannah Gadsby wonderfully talked about how people make big issue of small things. Here, comedy acted as a healing and putting things out there without making people uncomfortable.

I liked how she highlighted some very thoughtful points that we don't usually think about. Also her expressions were very entertaining.

A comedian like George Lopez who uses satire to portray a topic such as immigration that is very dear to him. He uses himself to criticize in order to portray his message and its a way to encourage accepting flaws and trying to heal and better them but to an outsider or someone that doesn't acknowledge the comedical nature of the humour might develop misconceptions and lead to a negative outcome or portrayal of a community and hence it begs the question what is the line between comedy and seriousness in the modern day

# data[].attributes.body
Apart from the obvious comedic value his work has, Lopez's comedy performs the important function of integrating Latino narratives into the arena of pop culture which is predominantly occupied by euro-centric ideas

What he taught me how to think critically , How to evaluate people and modern society. How to avoid bullshit. How to know when someone or something is true. How to put forth my best effort in a world designed to keep you down. And, of course, how to tell a good fart joke. George Carlin was….the greatest teacher I have ever had. 🍃🌸

She didn’t fear criticising mainstream ideas and giving an honest and frank opinion. She did a good job at differentiating between reality and our preconceived notion of reality.

i really enjoyed the standup. she communicated a very important message in a comedic way. i liked the fact that she spoke about how it is dangerous to be different. she spoke about her own story where she was literally beaten up by a man just because she was not 'feminine'.

George Lopez spreads awareness about serious issues that many people experience today by relating it to himself and his race. It not only makes people aware but it makes them want to do something about it instead of feeling sad about it or feeling pity for the people and makes them.

As a black person, i think its really important to have people who as well speak up for our community. He speaks upabout it in a sort of comforting and welcoming manner and this honestly helps us understand issues

The clips we saw were most probably about immigrants .. He addressed the common problem faced by immigrants which is " language barrier " it ended up being so funny .. but his stand ups might seem offensive to the people who took it way too seriously than they should .. perspective really matters .. but George  Lopez  played it smart by criticizing himself rather than blaming or pointing towards some other community. Which  regulated the whole offensive stuff ! The way he expressed the immigrant experiences was actually unique .. and his facial expressions and gestures were 10/10 :D

I think it was genius how Donald took on the concept of "racial dysphoria" in his standup and improved it in every way. I also appreciate how he made jokes about race without making it political, it seems to be an ability that many comedians do not have.
