Domestic Violence & Mental Health With Annesa.
<p><strong>Domestic Violence</strong> is one big stigma followed by<strong> Mental Health</strong> in South Asian communities (Pakistan, India & Bangladesh) . Whether it is financial, psychological, physical or even verbal abuse. Women in our communities tend to suffer more abuse than men. Anessa, a Psych Nurse and also a <strong>survivor</strong> of Domestic Abuse; shares her personal experiences and why it is essential to speak against this biggest issue as a brown woman. We also discuss about <strong>mental illness</strong> and how it is important to differentiate between<strong> culture</strong> and <strong>religious values</strong>. </p> <p>According to Times of India, "Pakistan reported <strong>2,297</strong> cases of <strong>violence against women</strong> from 25 districts across the country."

"Are All Ahmadi's Muslim?" & Other Dumb Questions Not To Ask.
<p>Ahmadiyya- Muslims are being prosecuted since a long time now. They are excluded from; political decision-making, voting, restaurants, to building mosques, to calling out the Adhaan (Call to Prayer) and other significant positions that enable them to live out their lives safely as a community. They are daily arrested, harmed and targeted because they're considered as 'non-Muslims'. This dates back to Zia Ul Haq's regime that states exclusively to register the Ahmadi's as Non-Muslims. I get the opportunity to interview Sabiha Anam. She is a Paki-American, and an Ahmadi-Muslim woman that sheds some light on the assumptions made about her community and how to educate yourself as a non-Ahmadi to spread religious awareness and speak against the injustices committed against her whole community. We also discuss about Hijab, social work in North America and how we can educate ourselves better to create a safer community for all of us as minorities in Pakistan. </p>
