After spending her childhood in Haiti, Farrah Daniel moved with her family to the US. The next few years were marked by her struggle to quickly learn English, find her place within Black culture in America, obey her religious upbringing, keep up with her French and Creole, and do as her parents’ asked.

It took several years, but Farrah has managed to navigate her way through, sort, and reckon with all the cultural identities that collided within her as an 8 year old when she first arrived in Florida.

Today, Farrah is a writer based in D.C. You can check out her newsletter The Shameless Wanderer on Substack
