Identity Crisis
Who are you when the name you were given is not your own?
Identity Crisis is a bold, honest exploration of what happens when a people are disconnected from their own history. Written for Africans and the African diaspora, this book asks the questions that schools never taught and families stopped discussing. It unpacks the cost of cultural disconnection, the search for belonging, and the power of choosing who you become even when your beginning was not your choice.
THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU IF:
You are an African or part of the diaspora trying to understand your roots and reclaim your identity.
You feel caught between worlds, cultures, or versions of yourself.
You're tired of incomplete stories about your history and ready to ask harder questions.
You sense that something was lost in translation and want to find it again.
You believe your past shapes your future, and you're ready to face both.
From Chapter Three: The Erasure
"They gave us new names because they wanted to erase what we already knew. Not because the old names were wrong. Not because our languages were weak. But because a people who remember who they are cannot be easily told who to become. A people rooted in their history cannot be uprooted without knowing what they've lost. And a people who know their story cannot be written into someone else's narrative without fighting back."
