Michael speaks with Chinasokwu "Nas" Nworu, a Nigerian-American born in New Jersey and currently based in Newark. He is a licensed Occupational Therapist who owns his own firm and currently works as an OTR/L for the New York City Dept. of Education. Nas is the mind behind PVO Global, a platform to positively affect social change and promote social responsibility throughout the world. 

In our dynamic conversation, we discuss the nuance of perceptions of Black Americans, Africans, and Caribbeans, by both intra-diaspora and by non-diaspora people; the significance of names; the Ghanian vs. Nigerian Jollof wars; and the impact of his boarding school years while living in Nigeria.
