Son Of Elsewhere author Elamin Abdelmahmoud
Manage episode 330256757 series 2856380
Elamin Abdelmahmoud's new book "Son of Elsewhere" is about struggling to find a place between two worlds: his birthplace of Sudan and his home in Canada. He talks to host Abdul-Rehman Malik about what it was like to show up in an Ontario town as an African pre-teen who spoke no English; how WWE wrestling gave him an entry point to Canadian society; and why he wants his daughter to grow up feeling the burden of being from "elsewhere."
Elamin Abdelmahmoud is a culture writer for BuzzFeed News and hosts the CBC podcast Pop Chat.
