Seat eight highly successful Black people around a dinner table and prompt them to discuss reparations and hairstyles and Kanye West over crayfish bisque and roast duck.

A hybrid of talk show and dinner party, the unscripted series explores the pride and peril of being Black in America.

What’s the difference between having influence and being a leader?
