It’s almost time for Dear White People’s curtain call — but not without a grand finale first. Netflix released a trailer for the fourth and final season of the film turned series, during which the college crew of friends, now graduated and in the future, reminisce on participating in a musical performance during their senior year at Winchester University. “We were never as alive as we were that year, pretending like our lives were a ’90s musical,†Sam White says, in the future. Indeed, the songs aren’t just confined to the stage of “The Varsity Show†— the trailer shows characters bursting into Johnny Gill’s “Rub You the Right Way,†Salt-N-Pepa’s “None of Your Business,†and Jamiroquai’s “Virtual Insanity,†among others. But things take a turn when new student group Black AF decides to protest the show, dubbing it “minstrelsy.†The final season hits Netflix on September 22.
