From the Virgin Islands to Atlanta to MacGyver, actress, Selena Anduze, on multiracial experience, acting, and naturopathic medicine, Ep. 90

Written by Alex on November 6, 2016 - 0 Comments

Ep. 90: Selena Anduze is originally from the island of St. Croix in the West Indies.  She is French, Danish, Swedish, Puerto Rican, Native American Indian, Algerian, and Jewish – in other words, quintessentially multiracial.  And, in St. Croix, where her family was a prominent one (her grandfather was a Senator), race wasn’t really an issue of contention.  That changed, however, when she moved to Atlanta and was confronted head-on with issues of race, racism, and discrimination.  This period of her life caused her to struggle with questions of self-confidence and identity, but over time (after a pit stop to undertake a career as a naturopathic doctor), Selena found her footing, as she moved back into acting – a lifelong passion.  And, now you can see her on tv, including on the reincarnation of the popular tv show “MacGyver.”

Don’t miss this fascinating interview!
