Cultural Assimilation Stories - From Kenya to England
We talk to Avraj and Kavneet Chaggar about cultural assimilation and how they adjusted to the cultural differences when they moved from Kenya to England in early 2004. Integrating into unfamiliar communities can be daunting and challenging. People often feel as if they have to compromise their culture, beliefs and identity in order to be accepted by the dominant culture. Can we maintain our heritage and still integrate with Western culture? Listen and find out!

Fight Against Racism: South Asian communities and how to stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter
Since the inequitable murder of George Floyd, who was killed for being black, we have all come together to learn, listen and educate ourselves. We wanted to take this opportunity to explore how we, as the South Asian community, can be allies for our black brothers and sisters. We explore the issues of anti-blackness in the South Asian community, colourism, racism, 'brown privilege' and come to some conclusions about what more we should be doing while standing together against racism. We are honoured to have two very incredible guests Justina Omotayo and Mayeen Malik join us for this very important episode.

Welcome to our first ever podcast! It's been on the cards for a while, so here it is.

We are also looking forward to having some meaningful, real and life-changing conversations with you all.
