Wow I don’t know why I am only now reading your newsletter but - I had a very weird experience recently watching Benny lava and some other random telugu campy-ass music videos with a group of mostly white friends and I had Feelings about it, some of which you have put very eloquent words to!! Thank u!!!

My heart feels so full reading this piece! I wonder if this sense of self-acceptance is an age thing? or a pandemic thing? it must be a universal experience, but it's so easy to feel alone in it, especially as a third culture kid growing up trying to fit in with what's "cool" and white and American. Love this essay so much!!
