In this heartwarming episode, Charlie Brinkhurst Cuff - New York Times journalist and former editor-in-chief of gal-dem - writes to her childhood friend Natalie Buraimoh. As two mixed-race girls growing up in an area on the outskirts of Edinburgh that lacked diversity, they forged a friendship which helped them navigate and learn about their cultural identities. Charlie shares how they have watched one another grow from girls to women, watched as each other builds a successful career and how they also supported one another to retrace their family roots.
