We speak with Donald Faison (donald_faison) about adultswim's new digital short series Alabama Jackson and share an exclusive clip from the show.
, following the titular time traveler and Harriet Tubman as they protect Black history from the machinations of Woodrow Wilson and the Ku Klux Kabal. Alabama is a hilarious combination of suave and bumbling, often saved by Harriet’s quick thinking.bit, but series creator Faison was initially inspired by Indiana Jones and his swashbuckling archeological adventures.
Faison’s idea came up at a San Diego Comic Con Panel, and the head of Stoopid Buddy Stoodios—the animation studio behind Adult Swim’s—was interested. It was the perfect match, as Faison’s love for stop motion animation runs deep. “[Seth] introduced me to a bunch of animators, and I was able to convince one of them to come back to my house and teach me how to animate,” Faison explains.“Things like this don’t ever happen, ever. But it happened this one time and I’m really excited about it,” he gushes.
“A lot of [the show] is made up, don’t get it twisted,” Faison says with a laugh. “Some of it is true and we are portraying history, but…we’re throwing Woodrow Wilson and Harriet Tubman and Alabama Jackson into the situation, making it a fantasy.”
