About this listen
This is Part 2 of a 2-part episode.
In this second part, I’ll explore some basic cultural studies theory around race, ethnicity, nation, nationality, and hybridity. I will also be discussing the work of Jassa Ahluwalia who recently published “Both Not Half: A Radical New Approach to Mixed Heritage Identity”. I’ll then be looking at how to move forward in a world that is increasingly more diverse, and in need of ways to express that.
