Including John Marshall Jones (TV's Bosch, In The Cut), Harvy Blanks* (Broadway's Jitney), Jed Dickson*, Tracy Newirth*, Trish McCall*, Curt Bouril*, and Erinn Holmes*.
Professor Charles Watts, a modern day disciple of Dr. Martin Luther King and recent Nobel Peace Prize recipient, must confront surprise "guest" Terrence Barlow, his long-lost best friend from prep school and Harvard - now homeless - when he shows up at a dinner party, and makes everyone question the validity of non-violence in the face of modern day symbols of white supremacy, especially the statue of Teddy Roosevelt standing in front of the American Museum of Natural History.
