In this episode, we’re joined by Dr Rohit Dasgupta, associate professor at the London School of Economics, queer activist and local councillor, for a vital conversation about caste, class, colonialism and queerness.
Rohit reflects on growing up gay in India, navigating caste, colourism and class hierarchies, and how these systems didn’t disappear online, they were replicated through dating apps, digital spaces and diaspora life.
We explore how British colonial laws criminalised queerness across South Asian countries, why homophobia is often framed as “traditional” when it isn’t, and how white queer spaces can reproduce exclusion rather than liberation.
From Grindr and caste to queer nightlife, migration, activism in 1970s–80s Britain and the limits of visibility politics, this is a nuanced conversation about power, belonging and what real queer freedom actually looks like.
