Caribbeanites have a rich history and legacy. In this episode, our featured guest, Dr. Natasha Lightfoot, Associate Professor of History at Columbia University, shares her wealth of knowledge on the topic. We discuss the crucial role of people of African descent in the making of the United States of America and the entire western hemisphere. And the importance of talking about slavery, colonialism, and all the different isms that come from that—capitalism, racism, sexism, colorism, all of those things that, in many ways, originate with the first sins of Western expansion. As first-generation kids, we examine our experiences growing up with two distinct cultures and their influence on our lives.
