Brown in a Small Town follows Afro-Yemeni comedian Ali Sultan as he performs standup and interacts with people in conservative small towns, showcasing how humor can fight stereotypes and open up conversations. Part stand up, part documentary, this project seeks to uplift the humanity of all participants and serve as a bridging tool during a time of intense political divide.
