The series, which features narration from Kaepernick, is co-produced by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Ava DuVernay.

A younger version of Kaepernick is played by Jaden Michael, while Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) and Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds) play his parents.

Based on the trailer, the series seems to focus on the discrimination and other challenges Kaepernick faced while growing up that led to his becoming one of the most renowned civil rights activists of his era.
