Welcome back to another week with the Cousin Connection Podcast!  In this week's episode, we discuss why we (as first generation Canadian Hararis) assimilated to African-American culture. It's a touchy topic but it's our reality and we're sure many of you have gone through this experience as well. We also shared some stories about whether we were ashamed/embarrassed to be labeled as "Ethiopian" vs "Black".  Thank you for the support and we'll see y'all next week!  Join in on the conversation and tell us your thoughts via Instagram: @cousinconnectionpod Follow Amir and Sara: @amirwastaken @alisara__
