What a difference a season makes! Thomas and Clifford return, excited to discuss the culture, community, and symbolism in seasons two through five of A Different World. We discuss the limitations of tribalism, the need to connect younger and older generations, the significance of fraternities, and A Different World being the full embodiment of what the Nothing Moves Without Us: A Black Culture Podcast represents.

A Different World is an American sitcom (and a spin-off of The Cosby Show) television series that aired for six seasons on NBC from September 24, 1987 to July 9, 1993. Season one focuses on Denise Huxtable (Lisa Bonet) and the life of students at Hillman College, a fictional historically Black college in Virginia.
