Special Episode // Live! at SAAN 2019: Intro
01/31/20 • -1 min
SASMHA was up at the South Asian Awareness Network (SAAN) Conference in January of 2019, hosted at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. We were able to record live with conference attendees, just talking and shooting the wind about being brown, coming from different backgrounds, and samosa-eating ASMR. This is the first of a few clips that we were able to record!
Coincidentally, SAAN 2020 just happened at UMich this past week — check them out on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/saanatum/

Special Episode // Unpacking the CAA
We’re in the middle of recording the second season of Brown Taboo Project, but recent news about riots and protests in India following the passage of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) made us realize we needed to put something out sooner rather than later.
Let us be clear — at SASMHA, we believe any kind of discrimination and willful oppression is wrong. We believe in calling it out, and we believe in showing solidarity with those whose voices need to be amplified.
We don’t know everything, and we come from a position of extreme privilege. As we attempt to unpack what is going on, please send us your thoughts, comments, and stories. Correct us. Call us in. Ask questions. Speakup. Let’s beat this ugliness together: [email protected] // @southasiansmh
