CW: Sexual abuse, abortion

Brown people -- let's talk about sex and mental health, baby! After ~2 years of trying to figure out how to make discussions around sexual and mental health issues accessible to our South Asian community, we had an idea: PODCAST! South Asian Sexual Health Alliance (SASHA) co-founders Sree Sinha, Tania Chatterjee, Trinish Chatterjee and Sriya Sarkar chat about what taboo problems they're dealing with in their very brown lives.

The South Asian Sexual Health Alliance, or SASHA, is a collective of youth organizers who seek to create a safe space for youth ages 13-30 of the South Asian diaspora. Our goal is to educate, empower, and find strength as a community to discuss our unique experiences as Asian-American young adults, fighting stigma and increasing access to resources, peers, information, etc. on the topics of identity development, sexual health, reproductive health, mental health, consent, healthy relationships, and other key issues.

Opening and Closing Music: "The Future is Female" by Madame Gandhi
