Hey CoCo babes!! In this episode listen to our discussion as we react to the documentary 1000% Me: Growing Up Mixed directed by W. Kamau Bell. This documentary highlights the stories and family dynamic of mixed children and their families living in the Bay Area. They talk through what it means to be a mixed race kid in America today and share their experiences.

Since we are all connected to mixed and multiracial people within our own lives we felt this discussion was necessary to have. We’re bringing you deep conversation and of course plenty of laughs with this one. Stay tuned and join in on the conversation!
