US-Lebanese comedian - Nemr Abou Nassar

Does comedy have the power to transcend borders, religions and politics and can it build bridges between different communities who may mistrust and misunderstand one another? HARDtalk’s Zeinab Badawi speaks to one guest that thinks so. He is one of the Arab world’s most popular comedians- Nemr Abou Nassar.

But does he risk promoting misunderstanding and perpetuating stereotypes through his comedy?
