This week we sit down with choreographer, dancer, advocate, and activist Brinda Guha to discuss the overturning of India’s law section 377. We discuss what it means in relation to India’s decolonization and different perspectives on the impact. We also discuss India’s history as it relates to both the LGBTQ community but also art and what the journey looks like getting back to what India was before British colonization.
