Comedy Meets Social Commentary in Hulu's 'Woke'


“I’m not woke. I’m aware.”

That’s the answer Chicago comedian T. Murph gives when he’s asked about his relationship to the title of Woke, a new series that dropped on Hulu earlier this month.

T. Murph plays the role of Clovis, friend and roommate of Keef, the show’s protagonist (played by Lamorne Morris), who tries to avoid controversy in his work until the world forces him to do otherwise.

Greta talks with T. Murph about what being woke means to him, if he moves through the world like his character and whether art demands activism.
