W. Kamau Bell: Private School Negro Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Danette Chavez
If you're looking for a progressive echo chamber, you won't find it in this thoughtful special. Private School Negro is full of rightful criticism, but it's also compassionate.
New York Times
Jason Zinoman
[Bell's] stand-up was never dense with punch lines, but "Private School Negro" veers further from a tight club set, toward a mix of storytelling, jokes and arguments. It's a rambling, sometimes overly familiar hour.
Los Angeles Times
Chris Barton
Bell flexes the same genial, conversational style seen during his far-flung interview segments for "United Shades" and stretches out on topics from the current political climate to his perspective on race and gender relationships.
Uproxx
Andrew Husband
Offers a wonderful mix of sociopolitical commentary and everyday humor, thereby presenting something for everyone.
AV Club
Erik Adams
A timely, energetic set that covers politics, racism, parenting, TV, and, in one of the stories he shares in Private School Negro, watching political TV coverage about a racist while parenting.
Paste Magazine
Graham Techler
Gives off a town hall impression, and Bell effectively leads one. He wears his status as a voice-of-reason comedian like a loose shirt, presenting plenty of ideas that earn applause breaks but not without playfully undercutting them.
TIME Magazine
Ashley Hoffman
The TV host and podcaster has always been skilled at finding the comic absurdity in darkness, but it's the moving way he talks about searching for hope that really makes this hour resonate.
Under the Radar
Ben Jardine
In an era of political and social strife, Bell is the bright comedic light we all need.
Decider
Sean L. McCarthy
We need more comedians like Bell in these moments while we can get them.
The Daily Dot
Christine Friar
Ultimately the strength of Bell's comedy comes from his ability to draw so many groups of people together with his humor.
