Their increasing representation in mainstream media is destroying barriers. Is this promoting inclusivity? Is it ok for them to poke fun at their own culture? Are they moving relations forward or backwards? As their success opens doors for more diverse voices to be heard and celebrated in the comedy industry, how do you feel about their jokes? Some suggest that humour is the best cultural branding. Do you agree? _x000D_
