    S3E20: First-Gen Representation in Media: The Stories They Tell vs. The Ones We Live
    2025/11/05
    From streaming shows to TikTok skits, “first-gen” stories are everywhere — but are they finally getting it right? In this episode of The First Gems, we dive into how media portrays children of immigrants. We’re breaking down the rise of first-gen representation: what feels authentic, what feels off, and who’s actually behind the camera shaping the narrative. From viral tropes to creative breakthroughs, we ask...Are we being represented or repackaged? Anna and Tanina sit down to unpack how identity gets stylized, marketed, and sometimes misunderstood, while we reflect on the joy and tension of finally being seen onscreen. Because for every story that gets it right, there’s another that reminds us that visibility isn’t the same as understanding. 💎 Epsidoe Gem: Representation isn’t about being watched..it’s about being witnessed Learn more about your ad choices.
