Description
Actor and activist Jassa Ahluwalia challenges the way we think about mixed identity in this thought-provoking memoir.
For over twenty-five years, Ahluwalia navigated the complexities of his mixed heritage, from the confusion of medical staff to the scrutiny of casting directors. He began to question the status quo and argues that it's time to rethink how we discuss mixed identity.
Part-memoir, part-manifesto, "Both Not Half" is a call to action for a more inclusive future. Ahluwalia explores the historical roots of modern mixed identity, deconstructing the binaries we've inherited and the narratives we've accepted. This is a journey of self-discovery that seeks to create a more nuanced understanding of what it means to belong in a divided world.
