This source tells us different stories of different comedians pushing the boundaries of how offensive their content was. One story we hear is \ with Kristina Wong, a comedian and performance artist featured in the New York Times’ Off Color series who used humor to make smart social statements about the sometimes subtle, sometimes obvious ways that race plays out in America today.

This source talks about how comedy and laughter have a large role in the society. This gave me information on how comedians jokes have more of a role than just making people laugh. They give ideas and take stances on social problems in our world today.
