Join Ezra as they chat to Skye and Sophia, an anonymous biracial DID system living a familiar experience for many: not being seen as Black 'enough'. They discuss the sense of belonging, cultural mannerisms, along with ageism in the mental health community.

Marginalized on Multiple Fronts
In 2021 I started a project titled Marginalised on Multiple fronts. In the first series, Black &_, I conducted several interviews with Black people with Dissociative Disorders. We discussed some of the similar struggles we have when it comes to racism, and access to health, and they educated me on what it was like being at other intersections of Blackness and disability. Topics covered include mental illness, disability, fatphobia, colourism, ageism, and more.
