Some family issues came up this weekend, preventing us from recording. So we’re revisiting one of our favorites from Season 3, _Black on White on Fire. _ We often talk on this show about _Quantum Leap_ episodes that haven’t aged well, especially with our more socially-conscious 2018 sensibilities. Here’s one that is – all too unfortunately – very timely. It almost feels like it could have been written today. Sam leaps into Ray Harper, a young black medical student living in Watts, Los Angeles on August 11, 1965 – the day the Watts Riots begin. As Ray, Sam must help provide medical care to Watts citizens affected by the riots while trying to keep his white fiancée, Kim, safe. He also has to deal with Ray’s militant brother, Lonnie, who wants Ray to abandon his plans of leaving Watts with Kim for a medical internship in Boston, stay in Watts and help his own people. L.A. actor, LaMont Anthony Hendrix joins us to discuss the episode – his first episode of _QL_ ever.
