Hulu’s new comedy series Woke, set to debut on September 9, will for many reasons likely be one of the most talked-about new programs of the fall, and it won’t be a surprise if it ends up as one of the most honored (or, at least, most nominated) shows come the next award season. It couldn’t be a more timely project: The storyline kicks off when its central character -- a laid-back, up-and-coming Black cartoonist named Keef -- has an intense, life-altering encounter with the police, in this case officers from the San Francisco police department.
