Timaya spent a lot of time listening to her grandmother tell about the many names that were given to enslaved Africans including nigger, colored, black, and African American. All of those names were linked to the color of her skin and gave no indication of her place of origin, culture, or language that resulted in the loss of identity. Her grandmother explained to her that those names were linked to how she looked on the outside but gave no information about her rich heritage in Africa. Timaya is excited to find that her identity is ddAea, a direct descendant of an African Enslaved in America. Timaya gained a new sense of self and takes the readers along with her as she discards the old and celebrates her newly found identity that reflects who she is - not how she looks.
