53 We The People: Season 1

Animated series debuts July 4 on Netflix

It's not often that a former president attempts to remake Schoolhouse Rock, but here you go. Arriving (appropriately enough) on Independence Day, these 10 animated, three-minute-long civics lessons are set to original songs performed by the likes of Lin-Manuel Miranda, Janelle Monae, Adam Lambert, H.E.R., Brandi Carlile, Andra Day, and Bebe Rexha. The series comes from Chris Nee (Doc McStuffins) and is produced by Barack and Michelle Obama along with Kenya Barris.
