Summary
On this episode, I interview Sree, one of the four co-founders of SASMHA (South Asian Sexual & Mental Health Alliance). This organization created a popular Instagram account @southasiansmh which made a post that stated "If you are Desi American and your family immigrated here after 1965, you owe that to the Civil Rights Movement". In this interview, we explore how Desi Americans benefited from the Civil Rights movements and address anti-blackness in the South Asian community. At the end of the episode, we discuss how we can speak out about these topics and facilitate difficult conversations with our family and friends.
