Summary: Amal sits down with a fellow Somali sister and unpacks Mihad's experiences as a black, muslim wāhine living in Aotearoa. All the stories explored shows the many faces of racism - the casual racism, micro aggressions, discrimination, systemic etc - all of which happened in Aotearoa. We also frankly discuss what it means to use your voice, the existence of being part of a marginalised community is a political existence, her experience as a black model and moving to Aotearoa.
