Black Privilege TV Bible

Overview

BLACK PRIVILEGE, the episodic, dramatic, edutainment series depicting culture, race and racism where ‘shades of white’ are discriminated against, is a cronicle of real-life people and events today and throughout history with each depiction told from the perspective of POC being at the top of the social, political, economical ladder.
With characters spanning immigrant workers to the elite political class, there is always someone for audiences to relate with. And each episode focuses not only on their individual journeys but also major, historical events and milestones which are then depicted entirely from the “walking in someone elses shoes” perspective. This is the underlying premise of BLACK PRIVILEGE.
BLACK PRIVILEGE takes place in modern day settings with necessary flashbacks to relevant historical events. The overall tone of the series is one of urgency and importance, the level of which dictated by the topic of any given episode.
It is the intention with BLACK PRIVILEGE to engage audiences on a multitude of levels ultimately causing people to identify themselves and their own role and contribution to our too-often oppressive and unjust social structure.

Why Now

More than ever we are witnessing an extreme lack of knowledge and understanding about cultural history and the need for human decency. BLACK PRIVILEGE will affect some audiences to look inward and potentially make wiser choices in their daily lives.
With the rise of white nationalism and white supremacy, largely due to miss information and ignorance about culture, entitlment and origins, BLACK PRIVILEGE will cause some audiences to reflect on how they see themselves in a complicated and diverse, tightly woven social fabric.

Tone and Topics

BLACK PRIVILEGE covers a wide range of social, cultural and racial topics meshed with current and historical events just as they unfolded in real time. The essence of BLACK PRIVILEGE is truth. At times and for some audiences it will be an inconvenient or uncomfortable truth. Viewers will leave every BLACK PRIVILEGE episode a little smarter and at the very least, exposed. The unique premise and engaging themes will undoubtedly create interesting discussions throughout social media and it is this greater conversation that will undoubtedly prove advantageous to furthering marketing and promotional efforts around the series. Enrolling celebrity talent known for championing human rights to appear in cameo performances would further boost outreach.

Series Backstory

For each event, such as the murder of George Floyd, characters are modeled after known people in the real life scenario. The primary difference being their race will be changed effectively to suit the premise of BLACK PRIVILEGE. In the George Floyd episode, we are engaged in the daily life of one of the people whose cell phone footage actually captured this despicable moment which led to global outrage. Through the BLACK PRIVILEGE prism, a white man being murdered in the middle of the street by a black police officer kneeling on his neck.
The episode featuring the crossing of the bridge in Selma Alabama for example, does not take the perspective of the legend John Lewis, rather that of a normal supporter, not even noticed in the now infamous photos. The BLACK PRIVILEGE episode featuring this historical milestone follows an unknown, normal oppressed individual’s life the weeks and days leading up to this historical event. Yet on the other hand, we are also exposed to well-off Americans who sympathize with the plight of the oppressed and their equal rights cause, as well as experiencing racists completely against the movement. And as always with BLACK PRIVILEGE, the perspective races and societal roles are swapped. It is white people oppressed and desperately seeking equality.
The details/events leading up to each indisputable and actual event itself may be based on known realities or not. Such decisions are made solely upon available information and what direction best suits the story in question.

Where We Begin

Although there is a BLACK PRIVILEGE episode depicting the murder of George Floyd, the pilot picks up after that event actually happened and exposes audiences to the affect and trauma caused. As always, race and class roles being switched.
#WLM, the symbol of the latest efforts for white equality is seen around the globe. Not since the infamous White Lion Party from the 70’s, has there been such an organised and successful movement for white equality.

Setting

BLACK PRIVILEGE uniquely allows a journey through time with any given episode. There is no necessity to remain in any chronological order, rather to highlight and depict monumental happenings, exposing audiences to simply another way to look at it.
From slavery to the White House seige of 2021, there is an abundance of engaging topics for the series to draw from. And with an ever changing historical landscape, incorporating current events is another way to remain relevant in the age of Search.

Characters

PROTAGONIST: RABEY PICKETT, 16

Black social activist RABEY was separated from her mother at birth and ended up in the system. She has lived in several foster homes and has managed to become a model student and Law abiding Citizen despite being for the most part, poor.
Rabey is genuinely concerned about fairness and equal rights. She has a white boyfriend who is continually in and out of trouble simply by virtue of being white.
Rabey wants to become a civil rights lawyer and her hero is Amal Clooney. She gets excepted to college and is one of the few black students to attend Morton, a historically white college.

CHARACTER 2: MAYOR GLEN ALLEN, 50

Mayor Glen Allen is the epitimy of all that’s bad about politicians. He’s a natural narcissist and a tacky dresser. Worst of all, he is a racist in denial. His number one interest is any of his personal interests at the time. His personal hero is the infamously discraced president, Donald Rummp and he often asks himself during decision making, “What would Rummp do?” Being up for reelection soon, he is consumed with his image and the upcoming campaign.

CHARACTER 3: TAYLOR ALLEN, 12

12 years old going on 25, Taylor Allen is no typical, overprivileged, black child. Her mother died at birth so she was raised an only child in her fathers care by the girlfriend or nanny of the time. During her typical nosiness she discovers her mom had other children before she died.

CHARACTER 4: ELLA BEAN, 25

CHARACTER 5: KEITH JAMES,22

Pilot

White man George Boyd has just been murdered in broad daylight by a black police officer kneeling on his neck for over eight minutes. It has not yet made breaking news yet the surrounding neighborhood is in some chaos.
KEITH JAMES, a white bike courier arrives home disheveled and excited. His girlfriend, asian-hippy ELLA GREEN appears taken off guard and completely shocked to see him home at that moment. He rushes past her to get to his computer, unpacking/undressing while explaining what just happened–”I just saw the cops kill some dude!” In disbelief, Ella sighs “Oh Jesus! Not again. Seems like they killing white bruthas every other day!”
Detaching an action camera from his helmet, he connects it to the computer to show the video he has recorded. He and Ella begin to watch what unfolds.
At the same time on the other side of town, MAYOR ALLEN is on the telephone talking to the chief of police about the same incident–an officer has killed a white man in broad daylight and was filmed by dozens of passerbys. The mayor, arguably racist, appears driven by greed and self perseverance during the conversation considering how this affects his reelection.
His nosey daughter TAYLOR ALLEN overhears the conversation and manages to see some of the police cam footage sent by the chief of police. She offers dad her opinion (non supportive and unwanted) on the situation. She is clearly someone believing in social equality.
Meanwhile, still not national breaking news, the story of George Boyd’s public execution has reached the foster home, where activist RABEY PICKETT lives and per usual, being fed racist, anti-white rhetoric and misinformation on a loud TV, frozen on Vox News channel which spews constant, confusing, conflicting nonsense in the background as the soundtrack to her life there. Closeup television cutaways play an occasional narrative function throughout the BLACK PRIVILEGE experience.
And what should have been a celebratory homecoming that afternoon because Rabey had just received her acceptance and a 100% free ride to the prestigious HWCU college MORTON STATE, was instead a rally for her racist, black household to stand up and bitch and moan in defense of this evil, racist, black cop…killing yet another innocent white man.
