Raise your hand if you’ve ever been mocked or made fun of just because you look different. ✋🏼 Sikhs in Bollywood are often portrayed as jokers, but what does that do to our perception? It’s time to reflect on how these stereotypes shape our understanding of culture and identity. Can we challenge these narratives 🤔💭 Full Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8VM6InXIdk&t=1141s #jasminekaurpodcast #americansikhfilm SikhRepresentation #BreakTheStereotype#risingimmigrant #americansikhfilm #immigrantstories #immigrantexperience

1984 Remembrance in Manhattan, NY.

It was a honor to share the stage with Sanam Sutirath Wazir and Harjot Singh last night at the 40 Years of Resilience: 1984 Ghallughara event organized by @columbiasikhs. A big thanks to the student organizers for their leadership. 1984 is Here and Now and the Sikh community needs to use the power of Storytelling to confront the ongoing lies, misinformation and injustice of the political levers of the Indian State.

This is happening TODAY! Organized by Columbia University Sikh Students Organization. Come join us. For FREE registration head to @columbiasikhs with all the details about the event. #1984 #livinghistory

ਮੰਨੂੰ ਸਾਡੀ ਦਾਤਰੀ, ਅਸੀਂ ਮੰਨੂੰ ਦੇ ਸੋਏ, ਜਿਉਂ ਜਿਉਂ ਮੰਨੂੰ ਵੱਢਦਾ, ਅਸੀਂ ਦੂਣ ਸਵਾਏ ਹੋਏ ।। During my visit to America I visited this place where an exhibition was organized on the massacre during the 1984 Sikh riots. Because I am also a victim of these riots, it was necessary for me to go here and I would like to say that you all have done a lot of research on this and have done a very good job. @americansikhfilm I express my gratitude to all of you that you have raised this issue even outside the country. Many thanks to your friends and your family for inviting me. #newyork #usa #iamsinghdilbagh #dilbaghsingh #1984sikhgenocide
