"Dear Mama" is a deeply personal and thought-provoking five-part documentary series that challenges traditional storytelling conventions to share an enlightening saga of mother and son, Afeni and Tupac Shakur. Afeni, a revolutionary intellectual and voice for the people, became a feminist icon in the 1970s as a female leader within the macho culture of the Black Panther Party. Tupac, a poet and rapper, is recognized as one of the greatest artists of all time. Their story reflects the possibilities and contradictions within American society during a time of revolutionary fervor to hiphop's most ostentatious decade.
