Episode 39 with student activist Mohammad Aamir Khan

In this episode, Aamir reflects on his experiences of belonging and unbelonging in both India and Taiwan. He highlights Taiwan's apolitical approach to higher education and queer rights despite being the first Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage. Aamir also discusses the nuances of being racialized and desired (or not) in both countries. He suggests that we should care and listen, without trying to score points on social media. In that context, Aamir practices self-care through crochet and knitting. Finally, we examine the detrimental impact of SIR on vulnerable communities in Bihar, shedding light on how people are being disenfranchised in India.
