A conversation that must be had

[Sejal Keshwala @SejalKeshwala]

The ONLY announcement today in which I see myself represented.
In male form.

Days like today are hard and make me question the point in pursuing a career in performing as a South Asian.

"There’s no space [in the industry] for someone like me. I’ve learned that if I don’t create that space, who will? Someone has to do it."

During #SouthAsianHeritageMonth we spoke to orgs and individuals who pioneered space. Tell us your stories below!
