Lack History: The Gentrification Show, hosted by Sam Kebede
Uncover the hidden histories of NYC and get answers to the questions we’re all asking about gentrification, like: Who’s really behind the displacement of Black people in Harlem? Am I a bad person? And is Columbia University actually behind it all???
LACK HISTORY is a raucous comedy game show mashed up with a charity benefit hosted by local genius Sam Kebede. Each show dives into the untold stories that have shaped this city through trivia games and fun challenges with the audience to win real, actual money for several social justice organizations fighting for housing rights, community preservation, and equitable development for Black and Brown communities in NYC. Get ready for an evening of shocking truths about all the stuff you DIDN’T learn in school. Think you know it all? Come prove it!
Let’s make history together. (The fun kind).
