Pallavi Sharda Instagram – Just had a conversation which brought to light (more like the dark of) the systemic racism I am up against in the workplace everyday. It really sucks: having to listen and acknowledge as you are unseen. I know many of my followers are young people of colour/minorities who face these dilemmas daily. I just want to say, hang in there. It will be better for our kids and even better for theirs (if the world doesn’t implode first). The decolonisation of minds is still a long way away… but if we continue to persevere… it will be better. I’m saying this for myself just as much as for anyone else. This is not victim mentality. This is the voice of a woman with agency who chooses to hear what is being said rather than sweeping it under the carpet in pursuit of being palatable. #keepthefireburning #nevergiveup 🙏🏽🔥💕
Pallavi Sharda Instagram – As a wee thing a decade ago, I shot the climax of my first indie feature at this fountain. Today I came back, after dancing the morning out, to reflect on the journey which has been and that which continues to grow. To reflect on the time when, as ‘brown actors’, we were told that our space is limited and our choices few and far between. I feel the rumblings of change, and feel grateful that I’ve mustered the resilience to stick to a path that originated as a childhood, fantasy: ‘When I grow up, I want to be an actress!’, I would exclaim. At the time, I only envisaged it was possible in the shape of a kohl-laden maiden in the fields of Bollywood filmdom…and so I mustered courage and chased that wondrous world. But the realities of being the child of the diaspora caught up with me, and my journey took a sharp u-turn into a more confused but equally courageous quest towards being seen as a human before my colour. And so here I sit, wondering when the us and them of who we are will finally evaporate and stories will just be stories for all of us to equally tell and celebrate. Central Park, New York
