    Free Palestine

    Free Palestine

    It's easy to feel powerless in the face of global atrocities but we have our voices and we can raise them in support of those who are being silenced.

    In this special extended episode I am providing a small amount of background over the British involvement in the current crisis as well as highlighting their involvement across history and the world where they have acted similarly in their own imperialistic interests to catastrophic effect.

    Harry Potter and The Problematic Language

    Hi everyone, I’ve had a little break over the summer but now I’m back….. I wanted to talk about some of the terminology used in the Harry Potter books and how this perpetuates harmful prejudices against mixed people

    Are We South Asian?

    Are We South Asian?

    In this episode I'm celebrating South Asian Heritage Month in the UK. How useful is the bracket South Asian in today's supposedly more diverse Western world? Should I describe myself this way?

    And if we are all South Asian despite any differences then why is being mixed race South Asian like being in the movie Mean Girls?

    White Passing and the Ethnicity Buffet

    I need to have a rant about the term white passing and how the western beauty standard we have been sold can lead to the erasure of our mixed race identity.

MixedGirlMane ,

I love the Mixed Race Mama podcast

Rhia provides thought provoking, easily consumable content about Mixedness, I just love her show. By sharing her own personal experiences as they relate to major topics and issues that Mixed people face, she really gets to the heart of an issue quickly and thoughtfully. It’s such a good concept and execution. I definitely recommend to all Mixed people to check out regardless of what country you are from.
