Jasmine is a new mother who has spent her life facing the unending identity crisis of being a mixed race woman in the United States. Being the combination of black and white but being treated like she had to be one or the other. And she tells us that the most push back about her race comes from a place most wouldn't expect. So how is she going to continue to face these daily challenges and instill the same strength in her new daughter to do the same?
