saahil m. (Brown Girl Mag editor for the Brown Boy section, Fullbright scholar, & starting their MFA in Creative Writing this year,) talks to Lahari about their journey to understand who they are. They talk about the tension of belonging - how one can reject and accept oneself on their path to examining their intersectional identities. They touch on their ethnolinguistic minority community, Bhagnari (now in modern-day Karachi, Pakistan.) We also cover the power of language, unlearning to learn, and extending grace.
