EP1: Representation & Media Culture (ft. Manasi Arya)

Starting the "Log Kya Kahenge?" series off with digital creator; Manasi Arya! From her viral Desi Power Puff girls graphic, to all the empowering Brown content she creates now, I am SO excited for this episode.

I didn't realize the damage that lack of representation could do to a kid until I grew up. Not seeing Brown princesses, cartoons or main characters in media subconsciously told me that I did not belong in those spaces. No one who occupied a "main character" or "princess" role in books and movies looked like me; and I grew up thinking Brown stories weren't worth telling.

When I saw Manasi Arya's Desi take on Powerpuff girls; I cried actual tears because of how SEEN I felt. Come hang out with Manasi and I today; we're talking about the power of Representation 💪🏽
