Protect brown girls from being made fun of because their food has unique smells and colors and tastes.
Protect brown girls from racists incapable of extending the slightest bit of grace and accommodation.
Protect brown girls who end up sitting alone while eating because their peers refuse to acclimate despite demanding acclimation. Protect brown girls who feel left out and excluded because of where they obtain their nutrition.
Protect brown girls who wonder if it’s worth it to bring the food they love for lunch because they’re afraid of the comments they’ll hear. Protect brown girls who love the food they eat and don’t understand why other people don’t agree.
this is so personal and true

A FAQ:
Who are they looking for?
Ideally, someone who is 18 - 44 of South Asian descent. Gender does not matter (have been asked this a lot). If you are not South Asian, I would still consider requesting a swab kit, because you might be a match/hero for someone else’s best friend.
