In this episode, I speak to Boston-based educator, author and activist Neema Avashia about her experiences growing up as a person of Indian origin in West Virginia, how she&apos;s navigated living at the crossroads of different cultures, and about exploring her identity through writing. Neema&apos;s forthcoming book <a href='https://wvupressonline.com/node/903'>Another Appalachia: Coming Up Queer and Indian in a Mountain Place</a> will be available from West Virginia University Press on March 1, 2022. You can learn more about Neema and check out some of her writing at her website, <a href='https://www.neemaavashia.com/'>www.neemaavashia.com</a>, and you can find her on Twitter at @AvashiaNeema.
