About this listen

ITV’s Lola Lawal speaks with student activist and podcaster Angel Arutura to talk about how she was born and raised in Northern Ireland, but struggled with issues of identity until finding the confidence to embrace her Zimbabwean heritage in a predominantly white country.

The 20-year-old grew up feeling like she did not belong, but now wants to encourage others to not be afraid to speak up, challenge racism and to be proud of who they are.
