Using Humor to Defeat Hate
Dick Gregory, a pioneer in the civil rights movement and famed entertainer, shares his wisdom
Dick Gregory, comedian-turned-civil rights activist, in Washington, D.C. — Neville Elder/Corbis
Dick Gregory was on the front line in the ’60s during the civil rights era; today he continues to be a "drum major for justice and equality."
Join Dick Gregory for a civil rights panel discussion at Life@50+.
A St. Louis-born comedian-turned-civil rights activist, Gregory’s social satire helped change the way white Americans perceived African American comedians. At age 85, Gregory continues to organize protests (having been arrested several times), write and perform while enjoying time with his wife, Lillian, and 10 grown children.
