Homeroom’s “101” lecture show takes summer vacation at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago’s “Word Weekend” with a comedy art show about words we use to talk about race and racism. The program features standup comedy and conversation with Rebecca O'Neal, Tim Barnes, and Suey Park plus a short film by poet and filmmaker Nick Twemlow. Homeroom’s regular 101 hosts Fred Sasaki and Seth Vanek will take attendance. Racists will receive free gifts.

There will be a Secret Sticker Club meeting hosted by Oscar Arriola at the museum prior to Racist Jokes 101. This special sticker making session is welcome to everyone who wants to stick it to racism!
