I came across this episode of Left of Black which is a series on the NewBlackMan (In Exile) Blog. I found it very interesting as I think about the ways in which we self-identify along the lines of race, ethnicity and culture. I find it even more interesting as I think about my research around notions of identity for person of African descent (i.e., Africanity). As some many not agree with my interpretations of such identity framing, I wish to, after your viewing of this episode, further the dialogue around ideas of nomenclature (naming) and how those identity labels play out in our lives. Please engage in the conversation. I would love to hear what you think…
