The ONLY announcement today in which I see myself represented. In male form. NOT. GOOD. ENOUGH. Days like today are hard and make me question the point in pursuing a career in performing as a South Asian.
"There’s no space [in the industry] for someone like me. I’ve learned that if I don’t create that space, who will? Someone has to do it." During #SouthAsianHeritageMonth we spoke to orgs and individuals who pioneered space. Tell us your stories below! bit.ly/3ogTRQz

Priti Patel implying that people coming into the UK 'illegally' to claim asylum should be deported. Completely - and it seems intentionally - ignoring that under the Refugee Convention, if you enter a country 'illegally' it shouldn't impact your asylum application.
