is trending now that media are covering the langar ki sewa for those stuck at the UK borders. Where was that energy when we were using social media for education and awareness?
Punjabi parents 🤝🏽 ignoring their son's behaviours/habits 🤝🏽 assuming they will be fixed when they get married 🤝🏽 letting someone else's daughter suffer in a marriage
One of the most annoying elements of our culture is how people think marrying someone off will "fix" them. Oh, he's an alcoholic? Just get him married. Druggie? Marriage should do the trick! Only results in a woman being trapped and miserable. Seen it way too many times.

I'm currently part of a team putting together an exhibition covering Punjabi Migration stories in Wolverhampton
We're aware of the conversations this topic will trigger and open, as well as the mental toll on some of the community... (1/2)
it just hit 5 years since that day I moved out. the first year was emotional blackmail every fucking day from family members, some of which still stands. about 4 months in I got asked 'what have you achieved so far? nothing! move back home, or get married'
hello my desi dancefloor mix is gunna play at 8pm tonight on the punjabi hit squad & bbc asian network, and if you can't catch it there then head to the bbc sounds app. tune in for some og punjabi, ukg & dnb licks tysm
I know my TL isn't purely brown people - so this a thread of injustice against Sikhs around the world right now.
Sikhs are portrayed round the world in such a positive light; as selfless caregivers.
And yet, throughout history, our people have been victims of great injustice.
The Punjabi Migration Experiences exhibition is up at the Wolverhampton Art Gallery, until the 9th July.
It is a brief snapshot into the stories of individuals from the community who were pioneers of their generation, including Satnam Sanghera, Mak Singh & Tarsem Singh Sandhu.

Can't get divorced 🤝🏽 can't move out without the daughter in law being villainised 🤝🏽 everyone puts pressure on them have children 🤝🏽 children grow up with unhappy parents & the cycle of bullshit continues 🤝🏽 grandparents trying to make up for their kids w their grandkids
The worst is how they'll conceal these addictions from the woman and her family. Then, it only becomes apparent after the marriage has already happened. I know a few instances where the woman just divorced, but the older generation just stays in these shit marriages.
I have such a tumultuous relationship with family and it really affects my journey with Sikhi. Days like today are hard without the presence of the people I grew up celebrating it with, and it feels like I'm just going through the motions for the sake of it.
Fuck

. Fuck anyone that says 'why didn't she just leave'. Narcissists and psychological abusers KNOW how to isolate you, make you feel bad for doing nothing, their only fucking language is GASLIGHTING and it takes E V E R Y T H I N G to escape them and see the real truth

Since those shares were bought in Facebook, FB + Instagram have been shutting down accounts and posts by people raising awareness for the
#FarmersProtests
- and other movements by the minorities in India - people's WhatsApp's have also been hacked.
It's getting dark again which means commuting and just generally traveling post 6pm, is anxiety inducing.
Clearly the UK media don't think women's safety mean much if she's not a white woman.
Where's the daily news headlines, daytime TV debates, front pages now?

My advice to young Punjabi / Sikh fellas looking to get married?
DO NOT marry a Punjabi girl with a tattoo. Only a slut would do that.
Marry a Slavic girl. They're proper princesses. They look after their body, skin and man 👍

Im used to being a problem and a black sheep and goin against the grain and ruffling feathers and instigating change and I ain't got time to waste anymore when I've been held back for portions of my life
1. you can do it after you get married
2. when are you going to sort your life out
3. I wasn't allowed to do that so neither are you
4. VIAH TOH BAHD
5. go ask your dad
There makes no sense for anyone to be driving those speeds down soho road, no way the driver would have been able to weave in and out of traffic on that road

& now I'm looking back at the last year alone, the places I've played as a dj, about to play, a whole event that just came into fruition after being an idea in my brain, the people I've been validated by & the people I've validated. It really does take 5 years before shit starts

The government is highly influenced by the Ambani + Adani businesses - they bought FB shares and pushed WhatsApp payments and an app called JioKrishi in order to extract information out of farmers about their crop yields etc

what a 10/10 album should look like.
If a guy openly told his boys that he had a room full of 7 girls to do in a row, you'd hi5 him. Funny how when its a girl with that story, no one seems to want daughters anymore 🥱🧐🤔
This Miss Universe discourse is fun. On one hand, everyone's loving that she's a Punjabi Sikh. On the other hand, they hosted the awards in Israel, even though other contestants pulled out and also suddenly India are happy to be represented by a Punjabi Sikh?
on the spot wafflin, but nana ji was the real g. I defo got the softest version of him after he'd finished being a dad & getting all 7 of his kids married & helping half the pendh when they first came to wolves. he used to walk to dudley & back everyday, working at the foundries
thank you raveena for sharing the impact your nana ji has had on your life. 💛

#FarmersProtest
is trending because the Indian govt have passed a bill to privatise the agricultural system in Punjab, which only benefits the people at the top of the food chain
4am ponderings; did the waves of punjabi songs sang by men, from a women's perspective, have anything to do with the confusion of feminine/masculine nouns that we still see today, in terms of speaking & writing skills
The gurdwareh down south are literallly doing more than the government right now on an individual level to those trapped in their trucks and cars.

A majority of Sikhs come from the Punjab region of India, up north, close to the border with Pakistan, in agriculturally RICH land.
Despite only covering 1.53% of India, Punjab makes up TWO THIRDS of India's wheat production and one third of all milk production.
