Lewis Black

Lewis Black’s wagging finger is an icon of 21^st century political commentary. Unlike Tucker Carlson’s bowtie or David Brooks’ supercilious smirk, it’s a symbol of honest and undiluted rage at a civic reality that has only grown more infuriating at every turn. An avowed socialist, Black is one of the few comedians willing to risk aneurysm, stroke and skyrocketing blood pressure to explore the corruption and depravity of our current politics and report back with a blustering, spittle-flecked fury that is frightful, hilarious and completely appropriate to our times.
