Plot Synopsis

Inspired by the life and work of artist Keith Knight, WOKE is a comedy series that takes an absurdly irreverent look at identity and culture as it follows Keef, an African-American cartoonist finally on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything. He has a traumatic run-in with the police, and begins to see the world in an entirely new way. With a fresh outlook on the world around him, Keef must now navigate the new voices and ideas that confront and challenge him -- all without setting aflame everything he's already built. WOKE premiered on Wednesday, September 9, 2020 at 3:01am ET/12:01am PT, as Hulu released the entire eight-episode first season.

On Friday, April 8, 2022, the entire eight-episode second season of WOKE dropped on Hulu. Cartoonist Keef Knight is now a popular activist on the rise, but he's facing a world where "woke" has become big business. Can Keef and his friends bring about real change, or is it just about the dollar$? And can Keef navigate this new world without destroying what he's become? Inspired by the life and work of artist Keith Knight, WOKE continues to upend Black nerd and activist culture, deftly satirizing with a wink and a smile.
