Not Just a Name explores and highlights the trials and tribulations of African Americans with cultural and unique sounding names. It follows the stories of Shiquita Williams, Fulani Bahati, Naauh'Mocquaii Robinson-Jones and writer/director De'Onna Young-Stephens as they deal with micro-aggressions and the painful and triumphant origin of their identity as conveyed through their names.
