filipinx tea (filipinx tsaa)

somali tea (somali shaah)

representation is important and saredo qasim mohamed wants to gift that to the world and more. recalling her coming-of-age story, growing into her truth as a black somali woman, she wants to turn her pain-turned-self-love to something tangible for young somali girls in the future. @bracefacekillah @sistersamah

chinese tea (中國茶)

this episode goes deeper than usual as angel leung considers what her identity means after learning how her intersections impact her as a chinese woman. drawing from negative childhood memories and socioeconomic impacts on race, she wonders what it means to be a “model minority” in canada, and if that title makes her oppression any worse or better than other's. @ngllng @sistersamah

pakistani tea (pakistani chai)

mariam ahmad shares her transnational life as a british pakistani woman. born in london, raised in dubai, and educated in canada, she talks about rooting herself in pakistani traditions no matter where she goes and how she reconciles her identity as she interacts with the different cultures. @iammariamahmad @sistersamah

filipinx tea (filipinx tsaa)

kateleen reyes believes her filipino heritage is a part of her, but she is still on her journey of self-discovery. rooted in family values, love, and respect, she looks forward to growing closer with her identity while still welcoming new western traditions as her culture evolves in canada. she also teaches us how to pronounce “kapampangan”. @kayereyes_ @sistersamah

italian tea (cagomida tea)

carina gabriele comes on and considers what it means to be italian – being racially white but ethnically other. we chuckle about the rose-tinted glasses our parents wear when thinking of the motherland and decide that ethnic communities have a problem with sleepovers. carina also gives a detailed summary about the art of making tomato sauce. carina gabriele @carigabri3 samah ali @sistersamah
