As a Jamaican immigrant arriving in the United States at the age of
twenty, Jason Hill noticed how often Americans identified
themselves in terms of race and ethnicity. He observed, for
example, the reluctance of West Indians to joins 'black causes' for
fear of losing their identity. He began to ask himself what sort of
world he wanted to live in, a quest that in time led him to the
idea of the cosmopolitan. In Becoming a Cosmopolitan, Jason D. Hill
argues that we need a new understanding of the self. He revives the
idea of the cosmopolitan, the person who identifies the world as
home. Arguing for the right to forget where we came from, Hill
proposes a new moral cosmopolitanism for the new millennium.
