Summaries

This drama series from Colin Kaepernick and Ava DuVernay explores Kaepernick's high-school years and the experiences that led him to become an activist.

A bold new limited dramatic series that chronicles Kaepernick's coming-of-age story, tackling the obstacles of race, class, and culture as the Black adopted son of white parents. "Colin in Black and White" stars Jaden Michael as Young Colin before he reached the highest levels of American football as an NFL quarterback and became a cultural icon and activist; Nick Offerman and Mary-Louise Parker as his well-meaning parents Rick and Teresa; and Colin Kaepernick himself, who appears as the present-day narrator of his own story, guiding viewers through a robust, colorfully-presented array of historical and contemporary contextual moments. You don't know Kaepernick until you know Colin.
