Brown Girls Is the Show About Women, Friendship and Love You’ve Been Waiting For

Late morning sunlight streams into a bedroom littered with photos, plants, and a bong while a phone rings insistently. Twenty-something Leila rolls out of bed. “Salaam alaikum, Auntie,” she squeaks, before her aunt overwhelms her with a wave of questions about her sex life and plans to visit the mosque. Squeezing her way out of the conversation, Leila breaks up with her girlfriend Miranda moments later while she awkwardly brushes her teeth, then jumps on a bus to meet her best friend Patricia. Over beers, they bemoan romantic love and pledge to remain single forever.
