Nadeesha Uyangoda

  • ... that the Italian-Sri Lankan journalist Nadeesha Uyangoda co-hosts the podcast Sulla razza (About Race) which explains Anglo-American terminology around racism? Source: " Author and journalist Nadeesha Uyangoda created Sulla Razza (About Race) in April 2020 with two co-hosts. Their aim is to explain Anglo-American terms like “tokenism,” “the n-word,” and “BIPOC” and discuss their relevance to life in Italy. Through this project, Uyangoda is addressing another issue in Italy that is often overlooked by the mainstream media: the lack of a shared vocabulary to talk about race." https://niemanreports.org/in-europe-podcasters-of-color-make-their-own-space-for-conversations-on-race/
    • ALT1: ... that due to her experience of Italy's immigration policies, Sri Lankan journalist Nadeesha Uyangoda has been outspoken on migrant rights? Source: "Uyangoda was speaking at the Festival of New Italian Generations, organized by Next Generation Italy, a grassroots group of first- and second-generation Italians. Their work aims to give a voice to young Italians with immigrant backgrounds who do not feel sufficiently represented in Italian politics and are now asserting the importance of their citizenship rights and demanding fair representation in politics. It's a rare opportunity for Italians to hear and learn directly from those affected by Italy's immigration policies—rather than from politicians with no skin in the game." https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/12/05/italian-citizenship-culture-blood-immigration/

  • This article is very interesting and well sourced, well done! It is long enough, new enough and there are no copyright violations. I personally think that ALT1 will catch the attention of more readers. I have archived some of the sources using the IABOT. As there are no issues and QPQ has been done, I think this is ready to go. Well done! :)
