*They Call Me Africa* by Sameer Kassar is a heartfelt exploration of identity, belonging, and cultural heritage. The story follows a young man grappling with his mixed Lebanese and African heritage as he navigates the complexities of life in a diaspora. Through his journey, he confronts the challenges of reconciling two distinct cultures while striving to find his own voice. Rich in vivid imagery and emotional depth, the narrative delves into themes of family, tradition, and the quest for self-acceptance in a world that often tries to categorize individuals into neat boxes. The protagonist's journey serves as a powerful reminder of the beauty found in diversity. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
