I'm a member of the African diaspora: my parents left the Caribbean and came to London for a better life.
From Marianne Jean-Baptiste
I see myself as British, and I want to be celebrated by Britain.
If you think about it, I made history. Not only was I the first black British woman to be nominated for an Oscar, I was the first black British person.
I want to work, so I'm going where the work is.
I still take my own lunches to work. That way I can control what I'm eating, as opposed to another doughnut.
