"A church that lived and died by pretty lies." In this small Southern town Josephine believes she understands the life she's been given. She is the preacher's wife, she makes the iced sweet tea and smiles when expected. As Josephine continues into motherhood, she begins to notice what the town celebrates, what it erases, and who is allowed to be forgiven. When a famous blues musician returns home, old loyalties, old sins, and the quiet certainty that nothing buried ever truly leaves drifts back into town. The truth does not arrive all at once. It seeps in slowly, like something in the water-through glances held too long and names never spoken. By the time Josephine understands the cost of what has been protected, it is too late to undo it. Some things are never meant to be poured out. They are sweetened, decorated with lemon, and called tradition.

✨ Hope of a Society - Season 2 ✨ A father returns. A son is stolen. A nation is on the edge. After years in exile, Nicholas Moyo comes home - only to find his son missing and the world he left behind more dangerous than ever. Across continents, secrets unravel. Betrayals burn. And the fight for truth becomes a war for blood, legacy, and love. One boy. One father. One chance to rewrite history.

Two women caught up in two different worlds until one day those worlds collide!

The future seems bright but, the past is a darkness Victor cannot shift. When Victor finds a head on his table he understands the message, loud and clear.

The revolution was never meant to be comfortable. After exposing the truth behind Caroline's Law, Nia Marshall disappears into a black-site prison, her voice digitally hijacked and weaponized against the movement she built. Her son Malik, now a global icon of resistance, finds himself caught between symbolic power and real danger as the system adapts, counterattacks, and begins rewriting history in real time. But the truth cannot be buried. As a fractured resistance splinters under pressure-some demanding reform, others crying for fire-new revelations surface: The clause wasn't a misstep. It was a blueprint, rooted in centuries-old documents that legally disguised human ownership as care. With the government deploying erasure, exile, and silence as weapons, Malik, Ava, and the last of the Sovereign Mothers must decide what justice really looks like in a nation determined to forget. From secret vaults and sabotage to ghost broadcasts and global tribunals, UNCLAIMED (Part Two) is a blistering, unflinching story of legacy, betrayal, and the war over memory in a world where forgiveness has become currency-and truth, the final rebellion.

A compelling story that documents the experiences of five college sophomores: Jewel, Shaun, Dirk, Lavender, and Coba. This story explores the modern social and racial complexities of being black in higher education. With the illustrious predominantly white institute (PWI), Carnie University and the distinguished historically black college (HBCU) Nickelson College as their stages, this group of friends battles racial oppression, overcoming self doubt, and claiming self reliance as they search for their own meanings of black American Exceptionalism, black classism, and most importantly, Hip-Hop as our inheritance through their respective callings. Welcome to Black Excellence: this is The Call.
