Amanda Tybee and Ryan Samuels are known to be the "It couple" of Northwest Grambling High School with Ryan being the star quarterback and Amanda being the cheerleading Homecoming queen. Unfortunately, they were known to be extremely homophobic and believe that racism is the backbone in American roots.

So imagine the surprise when a fatal car crash after a booze-fueled house party leads to them being sent to a world where being gay was the norm while being straight was seen as a big taboo. Imagine their shock to find that African-Americans, Asian-Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, and Hispanics rule the United States. And imagine how Amanda will react when she's now a gay athlete named Armando Ramirez (an Afro-Hispanic teen). And to top it all off, Ryan's seemingly accustomed to his new life as a gay man while Amanda's the one in hot water as she continues to stand by her beliefs of bigotry.

Now living in a foreign world that contradicts their past lives, both teens will have to get used to how things are run while finding love with new people and starting their lives over.  Prepare yourselves for a comical love story that also serves as a story of redemption and humility
