19: Being Brown & Dealing with Racism


Listen Later

Real talk 🎙️ Today, I have Ruth joining me to speak about what it’s like being Brown/a minority in Singapore. We discuss: 


💫 Racism, Colourism

💫 “eh do u smell like curry everyday?”

💫 Being treated differently as a minority

💫 “you’re pretty for an Indian”

💫 Racial stereotypes 

💫 Deepavali incidents  

💫 Xenophobia

💫 Micro-Aggression at Work & School 

💫 Discrimination 


While we’re glad that more awareness of racism has been raised in recent years, there is still room for improvement. We dive into our personal experiences & daily issues minorities and people of a darker skin tone face.


We hope this episode brings comfort, raises more awareness, and serves as a voice for those who are not heard.
