Genesis:
I immigrated from South Africa to Utah when I was 8 years old. As the only black African girl in my class, I got used to two things: people asking me if I had to fend off wild animals and being acknowledged but not being seen. As an adult, I've realized that so much of who we think we can be is shaped by seeing people like us do it. After all, how are you to hope that you can be a forensic analyst, or a curator, or a director if you have no point of reference to aspire to?
