Atlanta’s Munir Meghjani and David Perdue tackle tough topics with ‘Comedy & Conversations’ – WABE

“Comedy & Conversations” is an immersive experience where comedy is used as a tool to address difficult societal topics such as immigration, food insecurity, race and mental health.

Laughter is a universal language, and these shows thoughtfully pair comedians with subject matter experts for conversations that use humor to make group dialogue engaging, understandable and actionable.

Atlanta activist and community leader Munir Meghjani created the series alongside comedian and “What’s Good Atlanta” host David Perdue. The next Comedy and Conversations event, “Reconstructing Reconstruction,” will take place at the Margaret Mitchell House at the Atlanta History Center Midtown on Thursday, June 27.

The duo joins Summer Evans on “City Lights” to discuss the upcoming show.
