On this session of All Things Cosmic, we're sitting down with Rupa Pillai, Senior Lecturer of Asian American Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. We were fortunate to have Dr. Pillai engage us in relaxed conversation with her groundbreaking ethnographic work on the New York City Indian diaspora by way of the Caribbean, her take on the current volatile social landscape in several areas of public life and discourse, and plain ole lighthearted satire on the the oh so wonderful academy. Step on in and enjoy Dr. Pillai's wisdom for a little over an hour and be all the better for it. This episode contains a special music feature from St. Peter, Mn.-based The Ericksons, a group consisting of sisters Bethany Valentini and Jenny Kapernick. This is one you don't want to miss!
