Fear and shame are the primary emotions used to control people and when so much of SA culture is built around these emotions, breaking out of it can leave many of us with more than a few scars. Nisha is Gujurati and her parents immigrated from Uganda and her fiancé Dev's parents are from Haiti. As always, many of our cultural backgrounds have more in common than some people think but making our families see that can be a different kind of hurtle. They share both their perspectives, advice, and experiences on this weeks episode!
