During a performance at the Edinburgh Fringe, a comedian changed the views of a member of the EDL.

Raul Kohli, a comedian born and raised in Newcastle, has become a powerful force for change at the Edinburgh Fringe festival. Through his unique blend of humor, he is bridging the gap between right-wing extremists and liberal leftists, and making a real impact.

During one of his recent shows, Raul managed to change the stance of an EDL member from Sunderland. The man had initially expressed support for the far-right group, but after watching Raul's performance, he had a change of heart. This moment was a testament to the power of comedy to break down barriers and challenge people's beliefs.

Raul's approach is not just limited to the liberal theater audiences at the Fringe. He is determined to reach a wider audience and change minds through his comedy. Growing up in the North East, Raul knows the challenges and prejudices faced by working-class communities. He has even performed at working men's clubs, where some of the audience members may sympathize with the views of the rioters.

But Raul believes in finding common ground and understanding the human stories behind different opinions. He understands that it is not easy to change someone's mind, but he remains committed to his goal. He recognizes that in today's world, it is easy for people to be influenced by their social media algorithms and fall into a pattern of confirmation bias.

Raul's nuanced approach to political comedy sets him apart from the growing trend of "claptor comedy" where comedians simply reaffirm their audience's beliefs. He believes that this approach may be popular in the moment, but it does not bring about real change.

Growing up as a Hindu and Sikh, Raul has always been aware of the divisions and tensions that can exist between different communities. He has seen firsthand the consequences of allowing these wounds to fester, and he is determined to do his part in bridging the divide.

Through his shows, Raul is reaching a diverse range of people and engaging them in meaningful conversations. He believes that if he can change one mind at a time, there is hope for a brighter future. Raul may just be a comedian, but his impact and message are powerful.
