Quizplus · Accepted Answer

W.E.B. Du Bois coined the term "double consciousness" to describe the experience of African Americans who had to navigate a dual identity and the feeling of being both American and Black in a society that often conflated the two as incompatible. The concept applies to the experience of Hyphenated-Canadian Syndrome in which an individual's sense of self is divided between their original culture and that imposed on them by Canadian society.
