Description
Emmy(R)- and WGA Award-winning comedian and writer Wyatt Cenac ("The Daily Show") stars in a topical, 10-episode series that takes a satirical look at a wide range of social and cultural issues from his unique perspective. Inspired by the polarizing results of the 2016 election, the half-hour late-night series focuses on ways that everyday people can create change by using more than just their vote, uncovering issues in communities around America where people are making a difference on a daily basis. Rather than sit behind a desk, Cenac embarks on a journey to understand the big issues of the moment and investigate real-world solutions, while putting a focus on the conversation of change and telling stories of civic-minded approaches that deserve widespread attention.
