The comedy series “takes an absurdly irreverent look at identity and culture as it follows Keef (Morris), an [sic] Black cartoonist finally on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything. With a fresh outlook on the world around him, Keef must now navigate the new voices and ideas that confront and challenge him, all without setting aflame everything he’s already built.”
You can check out the teaser trailer below:
The series was developed by Knight and Marshall Todd. They serve as executive producers along with showrunner Jay Dyer. Knight is an award-winning cartoonist who is known for comic-strips like “The Knight Life” and “The K Chronicles”. His work has been featured in many national publications and they usually address the social issues of our times. He celebrated the release of the teaser trailer for Woke on Twitter.
