12 - Tanya Daud & Fraz Ajmal - Preserving South Asian Culture and Heritage
Manage episode 337538133 series 3381960
It's very likely that you learned about Western literature while in school, but as time goes on, we are teaching (and being taught) less and less about South Asian literature. We all know who Shakespeare is, but some of us have never heard of Manto.
That's where Qissa-Go comes in. The UAE-based collective focuses on the preservation of South Asian languages and culture through storytelling. We had the chance to sit down and talk to founder, Tanya Daud, and Chief Services Officer, Fraz Ajmal while on a recent trip to Dubai. They talked to us about what they do, why it's important, the richness of South Asian languages, and why they aren't more prominent today.
