                                                                                       Questions 
1. How would you define your identities?
2. What does the term “Black British African” and “Black British Caribbean” mean to you?
3. Do these ethnic grouping unify or divide us as a community? If we are supposed to be British, why is it important to then further classify the “type” of British? 
4. What narratives should we be sharing within the African & Caribbean communities?
