Now in its second season, the show remains the only travel series executive produced by and starring an African American man on national broadcast television. The show differentiates itself with its focus on cultural exchange, friendship and transformational travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a successful first season, shot internationally in 2019 and debuting in 2020, FLY BROTHER returned to production for Season 2 in the midst of the pandemic, refocused on domestic destinations. Season 2 also took a more societal approach, increasing its profiles on BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities, historically underrepresented in tourism narratives. <strong>Watch the season two trailer&nbsp;below!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div id=\"g1-fluid-wrapper-counter-1\" class=\"g1-fluid-wrapper \" style=\"width:662px;\" data-g1-fluid-width=\"662\" data-g1-fluid-height=\"372\">\n\t       <div class=\"g1-fluid-wrapper-inner\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.19335347432%;\">\n\t       <div class=\"mace-youtube\" data-mace-video=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BkLpGyGV9NQ?showinfo=0&#038;rel=1&#038;ytp-pause-overlay=1&#038;autoplay=1&#038;enablejsapi=1\" data-mace-video-thumb=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/BkLpGyGV9NQ\/hqdefault.jpg\"><div class=\"mace-play-button\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t       <\/div>\n\t       <\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cApproaching this season was vastly different from the first &#8212; both in terms of what travel means to our society and in terms of free movement,\u201d said Ernest White II, the show\u2019s eponymous host and executive producer. \u201cFor a season focused on the U.S., I wanted to lean more into my reality as a traveler who is both Black and gay, and the awareness and interest this identity engenders to tell lesser-known community stories.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The season features a notably diverse range of destinations, showcasing the depth of geographic and cultural diversity of the U.S and its territories. States and territories include: Alaska, Hawaii, Kansas and Puerto Rico; cities\/regions include: Adirondacks, N.Y.; Detroit, Mich.; Natchez, Miss.; Nashville, Tenn.; Newark, N.J.; and San Francisco, Calif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Mr. White \u2013 a seasoned travel expert, journalist and professor \u2013 FLY BROTHER is one of many avenues for which he is able to showcase his deep commitment to equitable travel. He is one of just seven changemakers named to <em>Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler<\/em>\u2019s Board of Advisors. He is also a board member of Impact Travel Alliance, the world&#8217;s largest community for socially and environmentally conscious travelers, and an advisor for Travel Unity, which promotes diversity and inclusion in the travel industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>FLY BROTHER with Ernest White II<\/em> is produced by Presidio Pictures and presented by Northern California Public Media. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 216 143'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Ernest-White-II-1024x682-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-161795\" width=\"216\" height=\"143\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>FLY BROTHER with Ernest White II<\/em> <\/strong>is a travel and lifestyle series about friendship and connection around the world, currently airing on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/2022\/01\/henry-louis-gates-jr-gets-new-making-black-america-docuseries-at-pbs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PBS<\/a> stations and on Create TV nationwide, and streaming worldwide at PBS.org and Revry.
