Five 30-something Indian women who grew up in Miami together openly discuss the underlying cultural themes that arise in the first all-Indian American TV reality show, Family Karma, on Bravo TV. Inspired by their childhood relationships with the Family Karma cast, these not-yet-an-auntie ladies ask provocative questions about the Indian culture and share personal stories, all while carefully walking the line between silly and sophisticated.

Challenging deeply rooted notions of anti-black racism among South Asians starts with educating ourselves. This week we speak with Deepa Iyer, a South Asian American writer, strategist, lawyer, and racial justice advocate to tackle ideas such as the "model minority" myth. How can we be impactful in the Black Lives Matter movement if we aren't frontline workers in the justice system? How can start conversations about dismantling long-held views about colorism and discrimination amongst the South Asian community and even our own families? Tune in to learn how we can become part of this change.
