Amazing. Shattering. Diggs and Casal know how to tell a story and keep the tension and interest high. Jasmine Cephas Jones is electric. The magic and grit of Oakland is beautifully captured, as well as, the tensions that come with gentrification and colonization. I'll be unpacking this for a week

“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”
