We Belong, a visual exploration highlighting the different experiences of South Asian identity. The SF Bay Area is often referred to as a salad bowl when it comes to how immigrants and the children of immigrants engage and interact with American culture and society. Which parts of our cultural identity we keep and which parts we shed is not only a constant conversation topic but also a daily negotiation. We Belong explores that dynamic through portraits and interviews with Bay Area South Asians. Photographs and interviews are by CatchLight Local Fellow Sree Sripathy and produced by India Currents in collaboration with Catchlight.
