A Writer From “Black-Ish” Made This Hysterical Video About First Generation Nigerians

How does a 24-year-old son of Nigerian immigrants land his very first writing gig on one of the hottest shows on television? Damilare Sonoiki of ABC’s Black-ish joins host Kimberly Foster to discuss how he got the job, what it’s like behind the scenes, and what he plans to create on his own.

Black-ish offers thoughtful, incisive commentary on race and class in the United States. Created by Kenya Barris, it’s currently in its second season.
