  • Summary

  • In this episode of Notes and Quotes, we explore the complexities of fitting into racial and cultural expectations. Naomi shares their experience of being labeled an "oreo"—black on the outside, white on the inside—while growing up in Barbados.

    Quote of the day: "We put stereotypes on ourselves. Everybody does that. But I think it's just a little harder for black kids to just be who they are." - Donald Glover/Childish Gambino

    This episode highlights how internalized labels create feelings of inadequacy, the diversity within the black community and the importance of embracing your authentic self.
    Join us for a heartfelt conversation on breaking free from stereotypes and finding self-acceptance. Connect with us on the Notes and Quotes socials to share your thoughts and experiences.
