Hello and welcome to Season 2, Episode 3 of where you belong! Today on the show we have Sabreet Kang Rajeev! Sabreet is a first-generation Indian American of Sikh descent. Sabreet is a full-time social-science researcher and holds an MA in sociology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and BA in sociology from the University of Maryland, College Park. She is currently completing her doctorate at the University of Baltimore. Throughout her life, Sabreet experienced the beauty and struggle of being part of a blue-collar immigrant family, and she is driven to raise awareness and empathy for a minority group of Indian Americans who do not historically come from educational or economic privilege. Generation Zero is her first book, and it is incredible. This episode is one of my favorites because of the way Sabreet studies the world around her and explores our social conditioning and how that impacts her community.
