Description
For more than forty years...Paul Mooney has been provocative, incisive- and absolutely hilarious. His comedy has always been indisputably real and raw, reflecting race issues in America... As head writer for The Richard Pryor Show, he helped tear down racial barriers and change the course of comedy. He helped Robin Williams and Sarah Bernhard break into show business. He paved the way for superstars like Eddie Murphy. Few have witnessed as much comedy history as Mooney; even fewer could recount it with such riotous honesty and depth of insight"--from back cover.
