  11. SEASON 1 TRAILER

    Trailer

    So often, we expect to define and be defined by others in a singular way, whether that is through our race, career, sexuality, or our relationships. We move through society as though our identities can be packaged away into neat, little, asynchronous boxes. However, human beings are so complex and unique; how can we expect to define each other in this minimalistic way? During each episode, we will reclaim the question "what are you?" by transforming a crude, belittling comment into an opportunity to explore the infinite facets of identity. We are all diamonds, so let's shine!✨

    I am a first generation, Haitian-American, multi hyphenate (with Tabitha) | Part 1

    Welcome to the PREMIERE EPISODE of “What Are You?”, the podcast brainchild of your host, Angeleaza. On today’s episode, we hear the first part of Angeleaza’s conversation with her roommate/friend Tabitha. Tabitha identifies as SO many different things, from musician to improv QUEEN, to consultant (her day job) to friend/sister/daughter. She is also the daughter of two Haitian immigrants, and as such, she identifies as Black…but not necessarily African-American Blackness (as Angeleaza does). Listen to Part 1 of their conversation, and stay tuned for Part 2, dropping Tuesday! Please subscribe! Follow us on Instagram @whatareyou_pod or follow Angeleaza @angeleaza on IG and TikTok. Questions? Comments? Send an email to whatareyoupod@gmail.com. Thanks for listening xo
