    This 5 episode series will premiere on October 7th. To grow up P.O.C. in America is to be other, to live on the margins of mainstream experience. So how do people of color emerge from their childhoods and formative years? How is their racial identity formed? How do they find their place in the world? There is no singular answer, of course. There’s a multitude of perspectives drawn from lived experience, from triumph and travail, the extraordinary and the mundane. In Growing Up P.O.C., veteran journalist Soledad O’Brien speaks with five luminaries (Sunny Hostin, Marcus Samuelsson, Alicia Garza, Tommy Orange and Chad Sanders) about how they navigated their upbringings and how they survive and thrive today. No matter who you are, you will find flashes of familiar and unknown. These conversations are revelatory, funny, engaging, and illuminating. And they’re necessary. By one estimate, America will be minority white in 2045. In other words, there will be more people of color than white people in the US. As we all move toward a more diverse landscape, hopefully these insights and perspectives will help erode feelings of “them” and “they” and bring us ever closer to “we.”
