Third Culture Kids
Listen now
Description
Host Dascha Polanco sits down with some of Netflix’s rising stars to talk about the duality of being a “third-culture kid” - too Latino for their gringo friends yet not Latino enough for their family. Jason Genao (On My Block) hails from New Jersey, just outside of NYC; Karrie Martin (Gentefied) was born and raised in New Orleans. Together, they talk all about being raised Latino *and* American, their LA culture shock and what happens when they head back to the motherland.
