Carolyn's Theatrical Reel

Let's face it. Racism is here. Zari McDonald, a single mom of four, sure knows it. She tries to counteract it with warmth and humor, but isn't always that successful.

​

Heralded as this generation's All in the Family, Driving While... tackles the big issues of the day, with enough laughter to remind us we're all just human.
