We attended the red carpet premiere of "Dear White People" Season 3 in Los Angeles on Thursday, August 1 and spoke to DeRon Horton, who plays Lionel Higgins.

Our red carpet host is Shawn Richardz.

Based on the acclaimed film of the same name, this Netflix-original series follows a group of students of color at Winchester University, a predominantly white Ivy League college. The students are faced with a landscape of cultural bias, social injustice, misguided activism and slippery politics. Through an absurdist lens, the series uses irony, self-deprecation, brutal honesty and humor to highlight issues that still plague today's"post-racial" society.
