Relationships highlights the essential bonds that shape us, mold us, bring joy, and wreak havoc in our lives.

In this examination of South Asian women’s journeys, we expose the harsh truths of colorism, women’s health, mental health, suicide, addiction, infertility, and connection to the body. In Being, we probe the many parts of our existence-from the body to mind to soul. These narratives of self-discovery and reflection take us down the winding roads of immigration, racism, coming out, caste, faith, living in a post-9/11 world and conformity or lack thereof. Identity explores the ways in which others perceive us and how we define ourselves.

In three sections, each author brings an uprooted view to the themes of identity, being, and relationships. Written by an intergenerational group of South Asian contemporary storytellers from the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Denmark, the stories in “untold” explore a defining personal moment in each of the writers’ lives through a creative nonfiction lens. The team at Brown Girl Magazine released our first-ever print anthology-“ untold: defining moments of the uprooted,” edited by Gabrielle Deonath and Kamini Ramdeen-in partnership with award-winning independent publishing house Mango and Marigold Press earlier this year.
