Dana Powell is a successful comedic actress in Hollywood. She's widely known for her role as Pameron Tucker on Modern Family, but has also starred in Bridesmaids, Veep, Suburgatory, and many others. However, while shooting a short film that Kim wrote and directed, she revealed that she was 1/2 Mexican, and the entire cast & crew was shocked and unconvinced. It's been that way her entire life. Dana opens up to Kim about her mother's self contempt regarding the family's Mexican heritage, hearing Spanglish in the house during birthdays, trying to apply for a financial assistance as a minority, and the decision to no longer stay silent when it comes to matters of racism. A raw and candid discussion you don't want to miss!
