Only Highly Melanated Can Thrive When Second Sun Appears in Upcoming Sci-Fi Comedy Series

"I wanted Blackness to be an advantage in the world," says Lull Mengesha, author, entrepreneur and creator of the upcoming sci-fi comedy series "Rise and Shine." The series explores what happens when the second sun appears in the sky and only the highly melanated can thrive. Jill Hopkins spoke with Lull about the concept and how it "flips the script."
