After having several conversations around racism over the last few weeks, we thought it’d be a good time to pause and reflect.    Join us as we share our thoughts around what surprised us, what we learnt and what we will start doing. Shout out to all our friends/guests of previous episodes who have taken the time to chat with us – we appreciate all of you!  Hop on over to our IG (@justbareit.co) and FB (@justbareit) to connect with us or share your thoughts. We'd love to hear from you! :)

The conversation on race continues! This week, we chat with Nur and Anna of Lepak Conversations where they talk about the tudung issue, micro aggressions in the workplace and what being an ally means.   Lepak Conversations was started by two 22 year olds who want to amplify the voices of people from the Malay community in a safe space. Their aim is to spark a culture of open conversation, learning and discussion by providing informative resources that are easily digestible. We absolutely enjoyed chatting with them and we hope you’ll enjoy the conversation as much as we did!   Do hop over to our IG (@justbareit.co) and FB (@justbareit) to connect with us and find Nur and Anna at @lepakconversations on IG!

What does racism look like in Singapore? Growing up as Chinese Singaporeans, it’s easy to forget that what's normal to us, is often a privilege that our fellow Singaporeans of other races do not have.  

This week, we chat with Saran, founder of @chaichatss, on what growing up as a minority race was like for her. She talks about embracing her roots, discriminatory encounters, standing up for herself, how to be an ally and most importantly, her hope for change. We absolutely adore Saran and we hope you'll enjoy the conversation as much as we did!
