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: southasiansexualhealth@gmail.com // @southasiansmh
