Prism's inaugural event You Said...WHAAAT?!: Comedy from America's Many Faces brought over 160 individuals together to explore issues surrounding identity. Five comedians from different ethnicities, religions, races, and sexual orientations used comedy as a springboard to discuss issues or identity and belonging in America's multicultural society. By mixing film, comedy and discussion, participants were prompted to think about where the line is between offensive and funny, what it means to identify with more than one culture, why you can speak about your own culture in ways that people not of that culture can't.
