YouTube Description
as posted by the channel“Every time I’m experiencing a piece of art that makes me uncomfortable, I kind of lean in, because I think wisdom is on the other side of that discomfort.” Cord Jefferson, writer and director of the Academy Award-nominated film, “American Fiction,” shares how his experiences in Hollywood contributed to his desire to expand any limited ideas of Black stories or Black characters, why he thinks it’s good that his movie makes some people feel uncomfortable, and how the film’s success is feeling very meta. #DailyShow #JordanKlepper #CordJefferson
