After The Storm

In this hard hitting episode we tackle an issue seen all too often in our communities. Anti-black racism is rampant and in desi Muslim spaces and we discuss the impacts of this. We sit down with a good friend Nasra, for an honest conversation on her experiences of being a Black Muslim woman living in a predominantly white suburbia. The conversation drifts to how desi Muslims can work to challenge racism in our communities and create spaces that are truly inclusive. 

On our very first episode we talk about our recent experiences at the Hasan Minhaj live stand-up and the Misaq e Ishq show featuring Ali Sethi. We talk about the importance of representation in arts and culture and how meaningful it can be to experience art we resonate with. We go on to talk about Coke Studio and how it bridges us back to our Pakistani culture questioning if we are in an era of gentrifying our own culture. Tune in for a fun episode and join our journey of cultural exploration!
