I sat down on the floor and had a very fun talk with Liza about a great many topics;  How Sweden is her home and also how she defines herself,  Having London as a place that she could see other black woman in the world doing their thing,  How maybe she needs to get on the phone with her parents and get some living history lessons.  As half of the podcast duo, Liza is used to talking about her days growing up in Sweden with her cohost Melanie her life long friend.  On instagram you can find them @lizaochmelaniesnackar Thank you very much for listening and supporting. If you want to get at me you cam find my on instagram @thistooPodcast

Asking the deeper question behind the question: “where are you from”. Who defines you? Do you? Does society? What are you really asking when you ask? This first episode give a bit of a back story to how this came about and why it is so important to have people’s voices heard. Music by: Ketsa
