My Own People Say I'm Not Indian Enough

I say words wrong. I can't cook Indian food on my own. And apparently… I can't even do garba right… Hallie had to teach me once she learned. 😅The South Asian community, especially Gujjus, let me know about it constantly.This week on Half Past Chai, Suketu gets into all the flack he catches from his own community, both in India and online. But this episode isn't just for Gujaratis. It's for anyone who's ever been told they're not enough of their own kind… not Indian enough, not Black enough, not Latino enough, not whatever enough.If you've ever felt like an outsider in your own culture, this one's for you. ☕Now settle in, get cozy, and grab your chai. 💛New episodes every Monday at 7 am.
