When Your Name Tells a Story You Never Knew
What does it mean to carry a name like Balbirsingh-"Strong Lion"-when you're raising a son in Denmark, thousands of miles from Trinidad, where your roots twist through African soil, Indian heritage, and Caribbean sun? This isn't just about geography. It's about carrying histories in your bones that textbooks never taught, traumas your body remembers even when your mind cannot, and joys that survived despite everything designed to crush them. Growing up between Brooklyn and Trinidad, then landing in Copenhagen's homogeneous landscape, revealed something profound: the stories we inherit shape us more powerfully than the places we inhabit. Before diving into personal memory, though, we need to understand what was stolen long before our ancestors were-the indigenous wisdom of pre-Christian Europe itself, a parallel loss that connects all our stories of colonization.
