  • Exploring Diaspora, Identity, and Empowerment...A Conversation with Author Nidhi Thakur

Exploring Diaspora, Identity, and Empowerment...A Conversation with Author Nidhi Thakur

March 2024 812 views 42 Min 54 Sec

Twenty-five years ago, Author Nidhi Thakur took her first flight, crossing seven seas to chase her dreams. As empowered and aware of the challenges ahead, she went on to build a life for herself in a foreign land. She vividly remembers what it was like to call home back then with a $5 scratch card with merely 20 minutes of talk time, how her loneliness brought her closer to her culture and identity. When she realized her experiences were quite universal, she transformed them into a book that resonated with Indian-Americans nation wide.
