Based on Ta-Nehisi Coates’ #1 New York Times bestseller and originally adapted and staged by the Apollo Theater, this special combines elements of that production - including powerful readings from Coates’ book - with documentary footage from the actors’ home life, archival footage, and animation.
Intimate archival footage and striking animation collide to create a profound, meditative space for examining the Black experience in America. This staged reading transforms a seminal text into a visceral, moving dialogue between history and the present moment.
