And my parents stayed, well, my mom stayed very connected, you know, and made sure that we were, you know, holidays and just weekends. We'd hang out with our cousins or whatever. So I had on this other side, a real validation of who I was and a real love for Caribbean culture. So I think that helped me maintain a sense of self even though I was being beaten down on at times.

There was this real dichotomy growing up. And, but then, you know, you joined the larger world. And as I said, I got to university and there are all these, you know, first generation Caribbean kids there as well. And even though we weren't part of the fabric of the school at that time, we formed our own quilt and it was so strong and so beautiful. We had the best parties.

Kids would come from schools all across the country to be at our, you know, cultural show events and parties and whatnot. And we formed bonds that were lifelong and that were so strong. So, you know, was that, that, that quote about something making diamonds, polishing stone, you know, sometimes it's the hardship that really makes it forces you to either shine or, or bend.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. All the food is here. There's all the good West Indian food you can get here. Jerk chicken and curry chicken. And I mean, my mom is from Dominica, which is a Creole island between Guadalupe and Martinique. And so the food from there is also really good. It's like French influence, but it's Caribbean with African roots. And it's just lots of goodies.
