Jasmin Church on Living in South Africa, Cultural Identity, and Ending the Diaspora Wars

Dear Diaspora

Discussions surrounding the “Diaspora Wars” – cross-cultural arguments among different ethnicities of African people – are often counterproductive. This week’s episode, with social impact professional and digital creator Jasmin Church, aims to shift that!

Jasmin is passionate about connecting communities across the diaspora, and her Youtube channel @jazzyjetsets, focuses on her life as an expat in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Tune in to hear about:

• Her journey from Trenton, NJ to Johannesburg, SA
• How our African and Black American cultural identities have evolved over time
• Our take on the Diaspora Wars – and how extending radical grace can be a great first step towards ending them
