Step into the world of a fictionalized digital conference, where Marie and Anthony host a retrospective look at the gathering of 19th century abolitionists in Toronto, when their event is crashed by ghosts of conventions past. Together they grapple with the way history has been written, as well as issues that affect Black lives today.
