In this episode of the British Asian - Other Podcast [BAO], Diya (she/they) joins me to talk about growing up Asian in Kenya and how her Asianness needed to be nurtured once she got to the UK.

In just over half an hour, we get into the strange shift she's noticed in moving to Britain: how identity here gets sorted into much firmer boxes, how being a queer person of colour gets read differently in the UK than in the places she grew up, and how building Asian friendships at university became its own kind of cultural homecoming.
