Reclaiming Narratives of Caribbean migrant women. A view from the lens of a Trinidadian

My Caribbean accent seldom goes unnoticed in a first encounter. It frequently leads to questions about how I came to be and why I am here. So, when asked to reflect on the identity theme for Black History Month 2024, I set out to respond, as identity relates to my narrative as a Black (mixed-race) Caribbean woman, migrant, and academic in higher education. My being British, like the legitimacy of my identity and heritage, is multidimensional.

Abstract

My Caribbean accent seldom goes unnoticed in a first encounter. It frequently leads to questions about how I came to be and why I am here. So, when asked to reflect on the identity theme for Black History Month 2024, I set out to respond, as identity relates to my narrative as a Black (mixed-race) Caribbean woman, migrant, and academic in higher education. My being British, like the legitimacy of my identity and heritage, is multidimensional.
