Writer and motivational speaker Torrie Sorge grew up in a predominantly white community with her single mother in Ohio where she mastered the art of passing as a white female. She spent a great deal of her life wanting to pass as a white girl because she was ashamed to acknowledge that her biological father was of Afro-Puerto Rican descent. However, it wasn't until the death of George Floyd, where she finally realized that she could no longer hide her ethnic heritage from herself and others. Torrie and Kim center the podcast discussion around the topic of growing up with their white families, how it impacted their sense of belonging, and making peace with their past and present lives.
