Show Description

Summer of 2012. Fred is standing in the middle of a California Mission church with a docent and 3 other visitors. One visitor is an expert on the Catholic Church. One is an expert on Native American history. The third is an expert on…everything else. They stare at Fred. Is his fly open? Hair mussed? They have one thing in common. They are all experts on which famous black person Fred resembles.
