Storytelling and destigmatizing taboos in the South Asian community is what our podcast is all about, so this week, we were super excited to talk about our newest favorite book, “untold: defining moments of the uprooted.” Untold is a Brown Girl Mag anthology, a collection of stories that explores the intergenerational, diverse South Asian experience throughout the diaspora, through the lens of identity, being, and relationships. This week, we sat down and did a little book club to share our favorite stories from untold!
You can get your own copy of untold and you HAVE to check out Garmi for beautiful, sustainable, and South Asian accessories!
