‘Woke’ review

A Black cartoonist experiences an awakening about racism even in liberal San Francisco in “Woke,” a Hulu series that pairs eccentric humor and characters with its timely real-world echoes. Based on the work of cartoonist Keith Knight, the show develops a bit slowly but deftly straddles the line between weightier matters and mining its sillier side.
