"Permission to Laugh: Using Comedy as a Force for Good" was the theme of our SXSW event

Comic Relief US brought the laughs to the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas this month. Our CEO Allison Moore invited Paul Scheer, author of the eagerly awaited "Joyful Recollections of Trauma," and Dulce' Sloan, the brilliantly sharp correspondent from "The Daily Show," to join her for a conversation on using comedy as a force for good. They talked about how humor can bridge gaps, the importance of openness, the power of embracing vulnerability, and so much more. We hope you laugh, and learn something from their insights.
