Bigotry Quote by Negin Farsad

“I mostly want to highlight things that feel like an injustice, and that's not really political. No one is going to - or should - say that bigotry toward Muslims is partisan. It's a matter of being just or not being just. So that's why I started calling myself a social justice comedian.” quote by Negin Farsad — Download Open image
