Fast Fashion and Colonialism with a Future Comedian
This episode may be somewhat of a time capsule, since it was recorded several months ago on September 25th, 2021. This was at a time when returning to campus and attending in-person classes was still a fairly recent event, and this was before the emergence of the Omicron variant.
Meet Imaan Khasru: third-year student from Bangladesh and Wales. Imaan and Ava talk about how strange the transition to an in-person campus has been. Imaan also discusses colonialism in the world of fast fashion and microtrends, the Rana Plaza factory collapse, the history of the word "thug" by the British in India, and problematic campus language like referring to certain dorms as "the slums."
