Our first politician on the show, who is also a practicing doctor, with a Master's degree in film, television and media writing, Dr. Sapna Samant is an exemplary leader who is equal parts dreamer and doer.
She joins us to talk about her work as a Greens Party candidate in New Zealand, why she decided to join active politics, the changing diaspora experience, and the dangers of a single majoritarian narrative.
As she takes us through her unconventional journey, we speak of the pressing issues of the day, in India and their spillover effect in the diaspora, the ways in which we can learn from the strides made within the indigenous communities to battle societal issues, and the role of the arts and the media in countering the rise of authoritarianism.
