Unpacking the Complexities of the British identity

  • Summary

  •  Jack Yates, is an inquisitive being who is very comfortable to speak his truth abut equally willing to explore and investigate even if it challenges his ideals. This is the most stand out attribute that appealed to me about Jack. He has a passion for British history and works in one UK's National museums. He has a most interesting journey about his relationship with The British Identity. I had invited him on as our guest to share his journey so far as a young male growing up in a Conservative environment.
