Subscribe FreeJeff Gerber (Cambridge) is a bigoted middle-class man living a middle-class life with his wife Althea (Parsons) and their two kids. Imagine his surprise when he wakes up one night to discover that things have changed; he's now a black man! With no explanation for the transformation Jeff discovers what it's like to live in a black man's world and is ashamed that he ever thought to call another person a Watermelon Man. (Tricia Littrell)
