The multiple-camera, half-hour comedy tells the story of three vibrant, successful Washington D.C.\/Northern Virginia-area women in their 50s who are each at a personal crossroads and who decide the best way forward in life is together. &#8220;<em>Act Your Age<\/em>&#8221; stars Kym Whitley (&#8220;<em>Curb Your Enthusiasm<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Next Friday<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Young and Hungry<\/em>&#8220;) and Tisha Campbell (&#8220;<em>Uncoupled<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>My Wife and Kids<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Dr. Ken<\/em>&#8220;) with special guest star Yvette Nicole Brown (&#8220;<em>Community<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>The Mayor<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Big Shot<\/em>&#8220;).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h3>&#8216;<em>Xernona Clayton: A Life in Black and White<\/em>&#8216;<\/h3>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Bounce also unveiled the centerpiece of its Juneteenth programming, the world premiere of an exclusive new documentary which will celebrate the life of perhaps the most unheralded civil rights icon and African American pioneer of our time. &#8220;<em>Xernona Clayton: A Life in Black and White<\/em>&#8221; tells the amazing story of Clayton, a truly extraordinary woman who has impacted our country so respectfully and quietly that many aren&#8217;t aware of her enormous contributions.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;<em>Xernona Clayton: A Life in Black and White<\/em>&#8221; will be an elegant march through Clayton&#8217;s nearly century-long life that honors an extraordinary woman, from her years working closely with Dr. Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King, through her pioneering broadcasting career with Ted Turner. Clayton founded The Trumpet Awards more than 30 years ago to recognize the outstanding accomplishments of African Americans and those who have succeeded against great odds and inspired success in others. The Trumpet Awards were acquired by Bounce in 2016 and continue to this day.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Produced by Emmy and Peabody award-winning director and producer Nancy Saslow, &#8220;<em>Xernona Clayton: A Life in Black and White<\/em>&#8221; will be told from Clayton&#8217;s perspective and also through the eyes of family and friends who have been part of her life, including Ambassador Andrew Young, Martin Luther King III, actor and rapper T.I., actor and comedian Chris Tucker and many others.
