Racial Erasure


Listen Later

Nish joins Thea this week to talk about her experience uncovering her identity and relationship with race. Growing up in Australia as a first generation Sri Lankan woman Nish shares her insightful journey with self acceptance, family, and culture. How does our external environment impact our internal understanding of race? How does your own sense of self impact your relationship with family values? Why do we feel a sense of shame around our identity when there is nothing to be ashamed of? Nish is incredibly vulnerable and honest in sharing her experience of feeling her sense of identity and race was erased throughout her life. This is an episode that will leave you with a lot to think about!
