'Dear White People' Season 3 Premiere Date Announced

The third season of Dear White People now has a release date!

The Netflix series will hit the streaming service on August 2, they announced on Wednesday (June 19).

The cast is ringing in Juneteenth by hilariously competing against each other in the “Great Grits Debate.”

Here’s the show’s synopsis: “Set against the backdrop of a predominantly white Ivy League university where racial tensions bubble just below the surface, Dear White People is a send-up of the now post ‘post-racial’ America that weaves together a universal story of finding one’s own identity and forging a wholly unique path.”

It continues: “The satirical series – which picked up where the acclaimed 2014 film by the same name left off – follows a group of Winchester University’s students of color as they navigate a diverse landscape of social injustice, cultural bias, political correctness (or lack thereof) and activism in the millennial age. Through an absurdist lens, Dear White People utilizes biting irony, self-deprecation and sometimes brutal honesty to hold up a mirror to the issues plaguing society today, all the while leading with laughter.”

Dear White People stars Ashley Blaine Featherson, Logan Browning, Brandon P. Bell, Antoinette Robertson, DeRon Horton, John Patrick Amedori, and Marque Richardson.
