Combining different people?

[edit]

I believe this article conflates two different people named Uchechi Kalu, who happen to both be writer/coaches. The Uchechi Kalu pictured currently owns the website uchechi.com and is not, if you compare photos from Princeton and Medium in the sources, the Uchechi described in the bio section. The Uchechi described in the bio almost certainly did not study under June Jordan, since June died in 2002 when that Uchechi would have been about 10. While the Uchechi in the photo is Nigerian-born, I'm not seeing any evidence that the Uchechi in the bio was Nigerian-born (though maybe, since its an Igbo name). My guess is that the introduction and bio were written separately without the second contributor realizing they were different people. Mr. G. Williams (talk) 12:56, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
