Being Black
|
|
| Wayne’s father, who went to England from Jamaica in 1952 to help reconstruct the "father country," considered himself British. Wayne "grew up with the understanding that we had to be more British than the British". But for Wayne, living in the U.K. is a different story. He now thinks of himself as a Black British African Caribbean man since each one of those aspects make up his story, and all of them make him the man he is. Wayne finds the white privilege in Britain, and his constant need to be on guard about how others perceive him, to be exhausting. This compelling video ends with the question, "Isn’t it time for us to be more accepting of differences and embrace the beauty of others?" |
