Comedian Amber Ruffin and her sister Lacey Lamar cracked each other up Monday while recalling an outrageous encounter with bigotry on NBC’s “Late Night.”
The two collaborated on a book called “You’ll Never Believe What Happened To Lacey: Crazy Stories About Racism,” and they came prepared with a doozy to tell host Seth Meyers.
Meyers said their book was troubling to read but humorous, and Lamar allowed that “we laugh constantly and those stories are hilarious.”
Ruffin, a “Late Night” writer who also has her own show on Peacock, elaborated on the time her sis had a collection of checks commemorating Black History Month, and she signed one honoring abolitionist Harriet Tubman for a cashier at a store.
“And the cashier goes, ’Oh I didn’t know you could get pictures of yourself on checks!’” Ruffin recalled.
