While undoubtedly, find it interesting that both are married to someone of Caucasian descent yet are the poster-children for this cultural identity campaign.
Needless to say, The Agenda NEEDS TO HAVE a discussion on SECOND-GENERATION CULTURAL IDENTITY. What defines being Canadian or American? How does one navigate this? I for one, would love to talk, or view a session about this. Thanks again.
@FlankerVT u are who u are ...nobody wants to be anything stop making up generalization like an ignorant moron. People marry because they love each other not race.
Ravi exploits the Indian community by identifying himself as an Indian for jobs (even though he self-identifies himself as mixed, and “somewhat” involved in the Indian community). He talks about cultural issues, yet just “happens” to marry a white person, as his sister. Post-colonialism at its best.
I think Piya really gets it. You can see her passion, but I find it fascinating how she speaks about white people not wanting to confront the “race” issue yet herself married a white man.
Fantastic! This was one of the better “The Agenda” episodes.I do think there should have been a bit more coverage on the political element as census forms continue to ignore the “mixed” category.
What I thought was the most interesting part was when both Mr. Ravi Jain and the host Ms. Piya Chattopadhyay started talking about cultural identity, specifically on the Indian community. Although I do not know either Ravi or Piya’s marital circumstances, I find both of their arguments flawed though.
This was one of the best episodes of the Agenda in a long time.
Many people in society doesn't like to talk about race, because it is a touchy subject and for the most part, Race has been an expplited issue in the Western World over the centuries. However it is in an important subject to discuss as the face of our society is changing over time.
I thought that Piya (whatever her name is) wouldn't be able to fill the shoes of Steve, but she has actually done a good job leading the dialogue.
God how pathetic have white nations become. Japan doesn't have multiculturalism and its good when I go there I want to see Japanese people.

After listening to this, it makes me support mixed race offspring even less.

of course they married whites, they themselves want to be white. Anyone who denies race is a fucking moron.

I'm always interested in learning more about this stuff, particularly because I have so few problems in this area, given my background.
