"I have Cerebral Palsy. I shake all the time,' Maysoon Zayid announces at the beginning of this exhilarating, hilarious talk. (Really, it's hilarious.) "I'm like Shakira meets Muhammad Ali." With grace and wit, the Arab-American comedian takes us on a whistle-stop tour of her adventures as an actress, stand-up comic, philanthropist and advocate for the disabled."
I HAD TO POST THIS. THIS WOMAN IS INSPIRING AND HILARIOUS. SHE REPRESENTS THE 'UNDERDOG' IN AN HONEST AND AUTHENTIC WAY. THIS TALK MADE ALL OF THE HAIRS ON MY ARM STAND UP. THANK YOU MAYSOON, FOR BEING YOU!
