Episode 12: Uprooted | Pt. 1

In Episode 12, “Uprooted: Part I,” we begin Sam’s two-part story leading up to the Season 1 Finale. Listen to how he and his family escaped Liberia before the Civil War and their journey to America. Earlene DeShield (Perrine’s mom) and Selena Wilson (Skye’s mom) open this episode and share coming full circle from Liberia to America. 1stGens can’t make Season 2 without you! Perrine and Skye are going to Liberia! The team looks forward to telling stories of young people in Liberia and really hopes you can help achieve that.
