After discovering that America's sweetheart, Judy Garland, was in a minstrel show two years before starring in The Wizard of Oz, Kristin was engendered with a new Black lady anger. "White Time” is her gift receipt to the Jim Crow era and to past & present pop culture. It’s the right time for "White Time": an hour of Whiteface Minstrel. *Butterfly meme* Is this reparations?

Born in Washington, DC, Kristin Lynne Wallace is a Scooby-Doo purist (anti Scrappy Doo) that loves shucking oysters on the beach and making politically charged jokes about her experience as a Black woman in America. Kristin began performing professionally while living in New Orleans; first as a rapper in a group called Chilldren, then eventually solo as a standup comic. Now based in East Los Angeles, Kristin writes for a children's television show while practicing catharsis through clowning and standup. Healing for her, funny for you.
