What does it mean to belong when your heart, memories and identity are connected to more than one place? In Being in One Place, Thinking About Another, Grace Marie Walker-John reflects on diaspora, cultural identity and the psychological meaning of home, drawing inspiration from Hurvin Anderson’s exhibition at Tate Britain. She explores the pressures Black people can face to make themselves smaller to fit in, and why belonging should never require us to shrink who we are. Read this thoughtful and deeply personal reflection on memory, identity and the freedom to belong on our own terms.
