The saddest story. It made me grateful that I was born in a time where people are rediscovering their roots and going back to embrace their traditions and be proud of their diversity instead of trying to conform to being American or British or any other Western influence. Because had I been born a couple of years earlier, I would have spent so much of my life without the unlearning and decolonising happening.
