So I have decided to watch the video of Taiye Selasi: Don’t ask where I am from, ask where I am a local.

What I liked the most from this video is Taiye’s quote: ” The difference between “Where are you from?” and “Where are you a local?” isn’t rhe specificty of the answer; it is the intention of the question.”

I believe she is trying to shift our focus from inquiring about how powerful the country we come from whether from US, Germany, Japan as she highlighted in the end to intend to know each other’s lives more, because we are in the end all human beings.
