Jamil is also an advocate for disability rights and has a non-profit called "Why Not People," which organizes music concerts and events that are accessible to people with physical disabilities. Jamil talks about her personal experience with a physical disability and how that inspired her to create the organization.
"The Good Place" is currently in its second season, which has a 100% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and airs Thursdays on NBC.
