TableTalk: Expat Talks -“What’s a nice (Black) American girl like you doing in a place like this?

A group of five Black American expats share their stories and experiences about living and working in Europe, and tell how leaving America has affected the way they see their country – and themselves. ABOUT TableTalk: The Virtual Round-Table - a twice yearly interview series highlighting the reality of women of African descent living and working in Europe. These events have been designed to give us an opportunity to share and compare our personal experiences and challenges with women of color in other European countries. It also provides us with a platform to share our perspective with other women of African descent in other parts of the world, especially in the Americas. Moderator/facilitator of this insightful series will be Trina Roach, herself an American who has lived in Germany for more than 30 years. Motivated by her own personal expat experience, Trina created this series to further facilitate communication and knowledge-sharing between all women of the African Diaspora.
