Dear Mama is a five-part look at the mother-son relationship between Afeni and Tupac Shakur.
The Hughes-directed series previously made its official debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, which took place last September.
Previously unseen archive footage and audio of the rapper and the activist will be featured in the program.

“When I agreed to do this, after talking to the family and the estate, I always saw it as a mother and son story,” he said.
The filmmaker went on to discuss how he wanted to give viewers a more nuanced portrait of the rapper, whose 1996 murder remains officially unsolved.
What made it all worth it for me was that I wanted to understand Tupac. I wanted to find the meaning of his journey. I didn’t want it to just be chaos,” he said.
Dear Mama is currently scheduled for its wide premiere on FX on April 21.
