“It’s a hard job”: Dulcé Sloan on “The Daily Show,” the South and unfunny comedians | Salon Talks

Comedian Dulcé Sloan tells Salon about her new book “Hello, Friends!,” “The Daily Show” and all of the odd jobs she had until she became a full-time performer. The “Daily Show” correspondent discusses the culture shock of moving to New York after growing up in the South, her frustration with comedians who don’t realize that they’re just not funny and why she doesn’t want a “Black Karen” in real life.

My family is from NYC but the grace of god my parents moved to Atlanta in the late 70s as a part of the first wave of the current Great Migration. She is 100% spot on with her assessment of NYC as the most segregated city in this country. Yes it’s diverse, but at night everyone goes back to “their neighborhood” and there are very few of them that tolerate outsiders. Most Americans never see this because the stick to the touristy parts of Manhattan. Go to the boroughs though and you can’t escape it. In Atlanta? The only dividing line is how much money you make, and everyone here is unified under one color: green.
