Dear Brown Girls,
Are you sick of aunties telling you how to live your life? Are you exhausted from constantly fighting the patriarchy? Are you tired of having to explain your complicated relationship with your roots to your white friends? Yeah. Us too.
So join us (Dia and Iza) as we could loudly complain about all of this and get angry over a cup of chai. And then hopefully (maybe) get less angry as we work through what it means to be a brown girl in this day and age and how we can make it a little less shitty.
Cheers,
Two Tired Brown Girls

2.7 The Humanity Crisis: All Refugees Deserve Better
The crisis in Ukraine has shaken the world. We've seen the plight of Ukrainian refugees fleeing their country, and how the world has come together to help. We've been reading and watching the news, and kept noticing this tendency of reporters to compare this refugee crisis to others in the past... as if we must pit them together . This compelled us to dig deeper, and what we found wasn't good. Join us as we dig into how refugees are being differentiated, and whether it's coming from Eurocentrism, racism, or something else, and how this discrimination has found its way into the legislation of countries that have received refugees. They've already caused harm, and will continue to do so if nothing changes. We ask for all refugees to be treated better!
Note: This episode was recorded in the beginning of April, roughly 1 month after the war in Ukraine began. Some statistics may be out of date.
Where to help:
Ukraine (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees)
Afghanistan (International Rescue Committee)
Syria (United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund)
Iraq (Non-violent Peace Force)
Yemen (Doctors Without Borders)
