Teaching Culture Through Laughter
Published Saturday, April 08, 2006 by Justin Mitchell | E-mail this post 
There is a reality in this community that some people often refuse to admit - that Oshkosh is continually becoming a well-diversified community. The best way to ensure that community continues to exist in Oshkosh is take time to learn about the different cultures and customs of each other.
UW Oshkosh is often an excellent resource for the community to learn about different cultures. On Friday, April 21, UW Oshkosh is hosting "Teaching Culture Through Laughter" - a one-man show that combines humor, folklore, movement, and rap music into a high-energy performance that educates about cultural diversity. As a Hmong storyteller, comedian, and rap artist, Tou Ger Xiong will take you on a journey of his life from the jungles of Laos, to the refugee camps of Thailand, and to the public housing projects of America.
This performance is free and open to the public. It will take place in Albee Hall, 10:15am - 11:15am. For directions to campus please visit
