“We
Must All Care” – Three very different Chicago families journey toward
hope and healing after a tragedy causes them all to consider how race
and racial biases affect their lives, on the series premiere of THE RED
LINE, Sunday, April 28
(8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The series will
air in two-hour installments across four consecutive Sundays. Noah Wyle,
Emayatzy Corinealdi, Aliyah Royale, Noel Fisher, Howard Charles,
Elizabeth Laidlaw, Vinny Chhibber and Michael Patrick Thornton star.
On the north side of Chicago, Daniel Calder is a high school history
teacher mourning the death of his husband, Dr. Harrison Brennan, an
African American doctor who was shot while unarmed by a white cop. As
Daniel tries to comfort their grieving daughter, Jira Calder-Brennan,
the two butt heads when she decides she needs more support than her
father can provide. She seeks the understanding of someone who knows
what it’s like to grow up as a young black woman, and searches for her
birth mother to learn more about her personal history, culture and
community. Daniel seeks comfort in his colleague – and Jira’s teacher –
Liam Bhatt. On the south side, Tia Young scours news of the shooting,
torn between her political ambition of running for alderman and risking
it all to comfort the daughter she gave up for adoption as a teen. Tia’s
husband, Ethan Young, a red-line train operator and devoted father to
their 6-year-old son, champions her running for office, but cautions her
about connecting with Jira. On the west side, police officer Paul Evans
must face the reality of his actions and intentions in the fatal
shooting of an innocent man and worries about his fate amidst the public
and legal fallout. His police partner, Victoria “Vic” Renna, and his
brother, Jim Evans, a volatile former cop confined to a wheelchair after
being shot in the line of duty, cause more harm than good in their
attempts to help him. As the stories of the Calder, Young and Evans
families converge, they each discover that it’s impossible to ignore
issues of race; it’s important for each of us to explore how our
backgrounds and internal biases affect how we act; and we must open our
eyes and see that we’re all human and all deserving of the same dignity.
