Especially with respect to South Asia, there is a tendency to pusstfoot over matters, which while being very important, are also very nuanced. For example: caste, it is a complex phenomenon that still deeply affects people, yet many treatments try to air brush it away.
Also it is an extremely diverse region, whereas it get often portrayed as a largely homogeneous monoculture, when in fact it isn't.
> We don't want to shy away from issues like caste. We have a piece coming up on the 'myth of the model minority' and want to talk about how caste politics determined the diaspora's fate in its adopted homes > In terms of being a diverse region, very very true. One of the ways we think we can solve this is by publishing stories that highlights this diversity. We have a story coming up on Kabul Dreams, an Afghan rock band. We have one about Sri Lankan dating. Not intending to make it seem like we're promoting homogeneity.
