Episode Synopsis


Written and directed by Cord Jefferson, AMERICAN FICTION tells the story of Thelonious "Monk" Ellison, a highly intelligent, African-American upper class novelist-professor that has been told that his books aren't 'Black enough' to make money. Frustrated by the state of the industry, he writes his new book under a false name and plays into stereotypes, finding success where he wishes he wouldn't. This week, Chris Utley and Seun Olowo-Ake enter the chat to discuss how to tell authentic stories about race.
