TVLine

The book that the Super Bowl champion former Seattle Seahawks player wrote with Dave Zirin is part memoir and part manifesto. HBO Max says its adaptation, written by Rodney Barnes, “is a one-hour anthology series that has one goal: to make white people uncomfortable. The theme of the first season is ‘the danger of white liberal thought.’ Each episode will take a hard look at how white liberal thought has impacted American society and contributed to the state of race relations in America today."
