The Importance of Code Switching

I wanted to be Brittany as a kid. I would have given anything to find my name on like a coffee mug at like a souvenir shop or a keychain, you know? So code switching has inherently just been a part of my life growing up because I had a very multicultural household and a non-Christian multicultural household for one. And so in order to belong to the majority culture, you have to deny some of the truth, the culture that you're inherently a part of. It's really kind of nefarious in that way.
