In this heartfelt episode, we delve into the inevitable yet challenging topic of death and dealing with grief. As brown people in modern British society, our experiences with loss are unique, shaped by rich cultural traditions and personal stories.

Join me as I share my personal journey of losing my beloved grandfather, our playful TV battles over cricket and cartoons, and the profound impact his passing had on my life. We’ll explore how different brown communities handle death through rituals and customs, providing comfort and connection during these tough times.

Discover practical tips for navigating grief, from talking about your feelings to finding joy and humour amidst the sorrow. Whether you’re looking for solace, understanding, or simply a relatable conversation, this episode is for you.

Tune in to Bold Brown British for an episode that’s as much about healing as it is about honouring the memory of our loved ones. Let’s support each other through this universal experience with empathy, laughter, and a bit of cultural insight. Don’t miss it!
