-Robert Toigo Foundation"The event was fabulous. Kamau was amazing!"
-MV CDO Summit"The university, the faculty and students - all LOVED Kamau...this is our second time with him, and now we all want him back a third time next year - but IN PERSON! The students across our campus were completely engaged in the webinar...Many positive comments on the part focused on how to talk with people who disagree, and how to gauge 'trusted' sources. Thank you and thanks to Kamau and the entire team that made this happen!"
-University of California, Santa BarbaraIn this uplifting and interactive workshop, bestselling co-authors W. KAMAU BELL and Kate Schatz share the origin of their New York Times bestselling Do the Work!: An Anti-Racist Activity Book, the goals of the book, and lead the audience through some of the books transformative activities. Bell and Schatz bring joy, laughter, and levity to anti-racism work, and inspire audiences to listen, show up, and do better.
In his captivating keynote address, W. KAMAU BELL, a renowned cultural commentator, skillfully navigates the intricate landscape of American culture, infusing humor and insight to unravel complex social issues. Attendees can expect an engaging and thought-provoking exploration that encourages reflection and dialogue as Bell invites them to join a dynamic conversation on the ever-evolving tapestry of contemporary American life.
Just like skinny jeans, superhero movies, and celebrity weight loss, racism continues to make a comeback. Luckily for us, W. KAMAU BELL is here to make (non)sense of all of it all. "The Curve" is a comedic, topical exploration of the current state of America's racism, combined with a little (unknown) history, a little Powerpoint, and a whole bunch of Kamau. And because racism is always attacking in new ways and from new angles, Kamau attacks back by constantly adding new material. "The Curve" is a seamless mix of stand-up comedy, video and audio clips, personal stories, knowledge-dropping, and solo theatrical performance.
W. KAMAU BELL has been talking about race in America on his CNN show, in his podcasts and in his books. Now he offers a guide for anyone interested in doing the work. With his disarming humor, Bell offers friendly conversation, challenging quizzes, and facts to those who want to leverage their privilege for good. Bell knows that many well intentioned people have read the books, donated and marched, but are stuck with what to do next. This talk by Bell and his writing partner Kate Schatz helps those people take the next steps. This talk is funny, smart, serious, and - most importantly - approachable.
