Introduction
Rami Youssef is the creator and star of the titular Emmy-nominated series, Rami. If you haven't seen the show, it's based on Rami's experiences as a first-generation Egyptian American Muslim. He talks about his Jersey upbringing in early forays into film, the politics of his stand-up comedy, and how he's redefining what the American dream looks like. We taped this talk a little before the writer's strike began on May 2nd.
