The insights that the title of the essay present about
Afropolitans is that it defines the identity and experiences
of an Afropolitan.

1. What insights does the title of the

essay present about Afropolitans?
 2. How differently are Africans portrayed
in the essay compared to usual
presentations of Africans in other
literature and media?

In the essay, the Africans practices multi-culturalism and they are

highly educated while in the literature in media, they were
portrayed as slaves and low profile people.
3. What is your personal perception about
Afropolitans? Can they be considered
unfaithful to their origin and culture?

My personal perception about Afropolitans is that they are

Africans who migrated to western areas of the world. They cant
be considered as unfaithful to their origin just because the left and
moved to another place, and that they already forget about their
origin and culture.
A persons identity and culture defines on where he or she
really belongs and in what traditions they usually believed
in.

4. What defines a persons

identity and culture?
They were challenged by the author to return to their home
land and grow again as one nation.

5. What challenge to Afropolitans

did the author present at the end of
the essay?
Afropolitans are not pure Africans: they have ethnic mixes.
The same with Filipinos, some of us are not pure Filipinos
because of the colonization of other countries. Also,
Afropolitans and Filipinos used to go abroad but for
different reasons and purposes.

6. How can you compare Afropolitans

to Filipinos and Africa to Philippines?
