COLIN IN BLACK AND WHITE
Watch on Netflix
Filmmaker Ava DuVernay and former NFL player Colin Kaepernick have teamed up for this six-part Netflix series that follows Kaepernick’s upbringing as a mixed-race teenager from Wisconsin. This is FAR from your typical NFL biopic! This series is focused on teenage Colin as he comes to terms with his Blackness and deals with race and racism head-on. Sounds like a touchdown to us!
SWAGGER
Watch on Apple TV+
Creator Reggie Rock Bythewood is behind this new Apple TV+ series about youth basketball. The series is inspired by NBA superstar Kevin Durant and in a similar manner to “Colin in Black and White,” the series also delves into the realities of growing up Black in America. Although it’s set in the relatively niche world of elite youth basketball, the characters explored here ring universal and this series should be well worth a shot.
