Where We Go Next 44: The Unresolvable Tension of Overlapping Identities, with Tomiwa Owolade
We all possess multiple identities. You are both a brother and a son. A daughter and a mother. Chinese, and American, and Asian. Gay, and Polyamorous. The combinations are nearly endless. And these identities are not always in parallel. They do not necessarily exist in harmony with one another. Sometimes - often - there is tension. Writer Tomiwa Owolade explores the conflicting and even discomforting intersections of identity, and the importance of embracing that tension.
