(CNN) When we filmed the fifth-season premiere of "United Shades of America" back in February, we had no idea that Covid-19, the killing of George Floyd and all the protests that followed would make an episode on White supremacy even more relevant.
I know some of you reading this might be wondering: "What does Covid-19 have to do with White supremacy or the death of George Floyd? Didn't you already do an episode about White supremacy? The one with you and the KKK?"
Yes, I did meet with the KKK in the very first episode of "United Shades" (thanks for jogging my memory). And while this episode is in many ways the sequel, we are going way deeper into White supremacy in America than the Ku Klux Klan.
