Ep 55. Diaspora Identities - Grappling with 'Black Britishness'

In this episode we discuss the politics around diaspora identities generally and in relation to us, personally. Ez talks about home feeling like Eastern Nigeria generally despite it being a vast place made up of several states. She acknowledges the varying definitions of home and how the feeling of being at home manifests in response to surroundings, community and comfortability. Jade talks about her complex relationship with Britain being the place she has accepted as home to some degree due to a mixed heritage and fractured lineage. She talks about her master's thesis which looks at the spiritual/metaphysical importance of feeling at home and how the disconnect may play out in civic life (using the African American experience as a case study).
