About ‘black-ish’

The 163rd episode titled “That’s What Friends Are For” will feature another round of funny yet educational storylines. Bow convinces Dre to attend a fundraising event for When We All Vote so he can make new friends. Dre thinks it will be a waste of time, however, their expectations are far exceeded when the special guest for the evening turns out to be former First Lady, Michelle Obama. To their surprise, she accepts an invitation for dinner at their house. And obviously the rest of the Johnsons want to crash the special occasion.

“black-ish” looks at one man’s hopes to teach a sense of cultural identity to his family.
