See No Stranger with Mishika Narula (Co-Founder of Brown Girl Bookshelf)
17 Mar 2022
We're back with another nonfiction pick this week, and it's a heavier one this time. Renowed activist Valarie Kaur's memoir SEE NO STRANGER allowed BGB cofounder Mishika Narula to see herself in print in more ways than one. Kaur's work on revolutionary love draws heavily on her Sikh faith and her experiences as an activist and lawyer in a variety of settings. Mishika and I sit down and chat about the nuances of representation, the many facets of South Asian literature, unpacking labor as metaphor, and our favorite breakfast foods. It's a lively, insightful conversation that you don't want to miss! No spoilers in the book either. Books discussed today: All About Love by bell hooks, So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo Follow Mishika on instagram @browngirlbookshelf Follow the podcast on instagram and twitter @yfbpodcast March Short Story Book Club pick: https://www.allenisd.org/cms/lib/TX01001197/Centricity/Domain/2344/A%20Cup%20of%20Tea.pdf
