Zambia My Identity

About this book

Zambia My Identity by Sydney Muponda, PhD is a reflective work about national identity, belonging and what it means to locate oneself within Zambia's cultural and historical landscape. The book invites readers to think beyond identity as a label and consider the values, histories, languages, traditions and shared experiences through which people understand themselves as Zambian. It is relevant to students, families, educators, cultural practitioners and readers interested in citizenship, heritage and the relationship between individual identity and national community. In a society shaped by many ethnic, linguistic and regional traditions, the question of identity is not necessarily about sameness; it is also about how diversity can exist within a shared national story. Zambia My Identity contributes to conversations about culture, belonging and the responsibility of each generation to understand and preserve the heritage from which it comes.
