Where Are You REALLY From - Izzy Da Roza

Every week comedian Yael Gavish talks with a comedian that has at some point been asked “Where Are You REALLY From?” Whether it's due to an accent, skin color, the outfit they are wearing or various other factors. Each conversation explores personal stories about travels, family life, cultural experiences and funny stories that have happened along the way. This week I talked with Izzy Da Rosa, a Boston-based comedian who has performed at venues all across town. She is a first-generation American, born to parents from the islands of Cabo Verde, a formerly Portuguese colony off the west coast of Africa.
