Tracey Jastinder Mann (she/they) reflects on a multi-generational experience of migration and the emotional, political and cultural forces that shape identity and belonging.

They speak to the pressure to assimilate, the weight of navigating multiple identities, and the lasting impacts of colonialism, capitalism and racism on migrant lives.

This episode is a powerful reminder that migration is not just personal. It is structural, collective, and deeply tied to healing, resistance and liberation.
