Don't ask me where I'm from, ask where I'm a local



I loved what Taiye Selasi shares with us. "Don't ask me where I'm from, ask where I'm a local', who states 'I'm not a national at all. How could I come from a nation? How can a human being come from a concept?' Instead she asks where are you a local? She proposes 'a three-step test, three "R's": rituals, relationships, restrictions, that would tell us so much more about who and how similar we are.'

Hey, where are you a local?
