#18 Why We Need To End Anti-Blackness In Our Communities (with Jonah Batambuze)
In this episode I sat down with Jonah from the Blindian Project earlier today to talk through the Indian Expectation on interracial relationships. We talk about the stereotypes and taboos attached to marrying someone outside your race, caste or community. We also talk about anti blackness, the negative effects of colourism, the awful phrase ‘BMW’ and how we can start to normalise interracial relationships. Jonah is one nicest people I’ve met- he’s recorded this podcast with me several times because of issues at my end and I am so grateful and happy that he was able to share all the incredible work he’s doing with the Blindian Project.

Om Podcasten
A Millennial Mind is a podcast about perspective, because when you understand someone’s mind, you understand their world. But we all live with limited data. Our beliefs, experiences, and knowledge are just a few dots. And if you don’t collect enough dots, you can’t connect them and you can’t grow.
That’s why this podcast exists: to gather those dots.
Each episode, I invite experts, thought leaders, and change makers to challenge how I think, on everything from mental health, hormones, and habits to relationships, identity, and success. We bust myths, reframe narratives, and explore what it really takes to shift your mindset. Because when you change your mind, you change your thoughts.And when you change your thoughts, you change your life. So if you’re ready to think differently, welcome to the reimagined A Millennial Mind.
