1000% Me: Growing Up Mixed
In Person
-
W. Kamau Bell is the director of 1000% Me: Growing Up Mixed.
-
Bryan Simpson is the codirector of Creating Things.
-
Chenning Yang is the assistant director of Southern Afternoon.
Playful and enormously charming, W. Kamau Bell’s latest work profiles the joys and struggles of children growing up mixed-race. Beginning with his own family, Bell speaks with kids and parents throughout the Bay Area as they illuminate the experience of defining themselves in a world that seems to prefer hard lines and neat categories. Tender but never shying away from hard questions, 1000% Me: Growing Up Mixed is a timely exploration of identity and belonging that challenges our assumptions.
