Interviews with Rashmi Choksey and Manoj Kumar
These recordings and accompanying materials mark two moments in Satrang’s evolution as an organization. The first, in 2008, is when the organization conducted a needs assessment in collaboration with South Asian Network (SAN) as a fiscal sponsor.
Interview with Alicia Virani
In this audio, Alicia Virani discusses the formation of Satrang's Youth Group, which specifically focused on 18-35 year old queer South Asians. This marked the start of Satrang’s meeting the needs of a new generation, many of whom were born in the USA rather than being first generation immigrants, and who have different vocabularies and political leanings.
Interviews with Supriya Bharadwaj, Alicia Virani, Rayman Mathoda, and Avantika Shahi
These interviews chart the evolution of Satrang and other South Asian queer communities to include their families and queer families with children. According to Supriya, Family Day, established in 2017, marks the moment when Satrang moved away from a focus on individual needs to a focus on the broader community.
