On #IWD2024 I reflect on the words of @LouisaMayAlcott “Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.” Happy #InternationalWomensDay

@SAHM_UK What is it like to feel you always have to be an ambassador for your race?
The Good Immigrant explores what it means to be 'other' in a country that doesn't seem to want you, doesn't truly accept you - however many generations you've been here. #SouthAsianHeritageMonth

We have fought for South Asian representation which defies stereotypes however the older generation of SA women are still depicted as villains, even 20 years apart. More recent examples of this caricature include 2022’s Disney’s Ms. Marvel &Netflix’s Never Have I Ever @SAHM_UK

@SAHM_UK Day 3 How to define an Aunty….No, she’s not your mum’s sister, but an older lady in your extended community who feels compelled to comment on everything from your appearance to your lack of medical degree. Hilarious right? No! not at all. Click ALT #defying-stereotypes

[Usha Kaushal @ushakaushal]

Day 3- Over time, I have realised that my #SouthAsianHeritage is a strong part of my identity & talking to people & listening to their stories has helped me to stay in touch with my South Asian-ness. On the road with the @YAS_Wellbeing bus @BTHFT What’s your story @SAHM_UK

#SouthAsianHeritageMonth Day2-Evolution of identity of ‘where am I from’ means many things & can change over time. We come close to discovering the depth & breadth of the South Asian experience, by hearing & sharing stories, & seeking solace in similar lived experiences. @SAHM_UK
