I have aired How the Negro and the Jew Got Into Show Business on a late night jazz program I used to host. Now I'm on air with a jazz program from 9-11 pm for an NPR affiliate and more cautious. My psych prof as an undergrad in NYC early 1960s introduced me to Lenny. A revelation to a kid who thought Shelley Berman was hysterical. Later I got hip to Bill Hicks.
Invoking the spirits of Lennie Bruce, George Carlin and other poets of satire, like Jonathan Swift in"A Modest Proposal," I call for verbal assaults on those who think t-ism is tolerable! Bring down mockery, derision, insult, ridicule--reducing their policies and statements to absurdities more horrible than they might be. Make America inept, stupid and criminal again!
When I was 13, my idols were Lenny Bruce and Charlie Parker. No wonder I turned out as I did.

Bill Hicks was great, he left us much much too soon.
