SUMMARY:Tasveer Community Speaks: Frames of Mind
DESCRIPTION:Join us to witness the nurturing and empowering journey of the participants as they share their vivid\, bold\, heartwarming\, and poignant stories with you. The powerful monologues are captivating in their intensity\, their raw messages questioning societal norms\, judgments\, and prejudices. \nCommunity Speaks\, started in 2011 as a part of Aaina\, as a forum for South Asians impacted by violence to break the isolation they have experienced by sharing their story\, in partnership with Chaya (now called API Chaya). Each year the Community Stories narratives shed light on the special challenges and opportunities experienced within the South Asian socio-cultural context\, whether in native lands or in adopted homelands. \n**Trigger Warning: Some stories carry references to topics such as sexual abuse\, self-harm\, violence\, eating disorders and body image. ** \nSCHEDULE \n7PM: Seattle Raga Institute will present two new compositions\, in raga Bhatiyar\, portraying the nuanced nature of mental health through melodies and cyclical structures that represent the cycle we often find ourselves trapped in our own lives.
