Despite our last podcast, the committee wanted to get together and welcome everyone back to 2021 and university life! Listen to us chat about how us Tamils celebrate our Christmas, what we really think about the vaccine and what we are going to be intercalating in.

Episode 7: Sexuality in the Tamil Community
Welcome to our first podcast of 2021! In conversation with Gayathiri from Inclusive Tamil Arts, this podcast focuses on sexuality and how we can open up spaces in our Tamil community to be inclusive for anyone and everyone. As the younger generation, we feel it is important that TSOCs provide a space for those who may be marginalised in our culture. Please refer to our resources list on our Instagram page for any help that you may need.
