SUMMARY:TBA September 2024\, PALEY CENTER - Confronting Prejudice with Laughter: The Continuing Impact of Jewish Comedy.
DESCRIPTION:TICKET INFO COMING SOON!  \nThe event is part of the ongoing PaleyImpact series\, Media’s Role in Combating Antisemitism and will take place at the Paley Center in New York. September date TBA \nFifties Jewish comedy was undeniably inspirational to a whole generation of comedians\, also having major impact on American comic history. Developed in New York’s Catskills resorts frequented by Jewish families\, it resonated with their shared cultural experiences and the Yiddish language. The jokes focused on everyday struggles\, family dynamics\, and self-deprecating humor\, creating a sense of connection and shared laughter. For Jews\, facing discrimination and antisemitism in society\, the resorts offered a safe space for laughter and release. Younger Jewish comedians employ similar type of jokes revolving around daily trials and family problems\, while also referencing contemporary concerns\, notably the rise in antisemitism. \nThis special event will bring together classic comedians trained in the fifties tradition together with comedians who are now updating the legacy of this comedy for the younger generation. Panelists will explore why this relatable humor never goes out of style\, but constantly needs to evolve\, helping to fight hate and prejudice with laughter over daily and family woes that we all share.
