## Caption

The Golden Era of Black sitcoms included many iconic '90s TV shows like "Martin" and "In Living Color" that reflected so many different versions of Black life.⁠
⁠
When looking back, Geoff Bennett asks one question: "How did that happen?" The PBS NewsHour co-anchor decided to write a book that he's always wanted to read: "Black Out Loud: The Revolutionary History of Black Comedy from Vaudeville to '90s Sitcoms."⁠
⁠
In it, he explores the impact of Black comedy in America. ⁠
