White History Month Great Person Of The Week . White History Month Great Person Of The Week White History Month Great Person Of The Week .GEORGE CARLIN, COMEDIAN, SOCIAL COMMENTATORGeorge Dennis Carlin was born on May 12, 1937 in New York, New York. He is a Grammy-winning American stand-up comedian, actor, and author.Carlin is especially noted for his irreverent attitude and his observations on language, psychology, and religion along with many taboo subjects. In fact, Carlin and his "Seven Dirty Words" comedy routine were central to the 1978 U.S. Supreme Court case F.C.C. v. Pacifica Foundation, in which a narrow 5-4 decision by the justices affirmed the government's right to regulate Carlin's act on the public airwaves.George Carlin's stand up routine is primarily focused on the short comings and flaws of modern day America. He often takes on political issues and normal issues of mainly America.He is considered by many to be a successor to the late Lenny Bruce and was described by Comedy Central as the second greatest stand-up comedian of all time behind Richard Pryor.George Carlin is our Great Person in History.
