We hope that the pandemic will soon pass and once again Aaina and Yoni Ki Baat will be experienced in a physical space.About CS: Community Speaks began in 2008 as a program of annual festival Aaina: South Asian Women Focus. Partnering with API Chaya, Community Speaks was originally imagined as a forum for South Asians impacted by violence to break the isolation they have experienced by sharing their story. Over the years, many people have shared their stories, including young people, elders, all genders, and from various South Asian ethnic backgrounds.⏰ Shows on April 10 &amp; 11
