Unsilent Women
Welcome to the Unsilent Women podcast!
Join hosts Poorva Misra-Miller and Nashina Merani Miranda on a courageous and heartfelt journey through the multifaceted world of gender, race, heritage, and feminism.
As proud brown women navigating predominantly white spaces, they forge paths and break barriers. Their conversations encompass everything from the ancient art of tattooing as a means of self-expression to how food shapes our culture and collective identity, from ancestral trauma's haunting echoes to the relentless drumbeat of late-stage capitalism and hustle culture.
With a blend of robust research and empathy, fueled by strong coffee and unbreakable bonds, Poorva and Nashina create a rich tapestry of thought-provoking dialogue. They aim to discuss, heal, educate, and connect.
Unsilent Women is a platform to build bridges, spark inspiration, and foster a global sisterhood among women of color everywhere.
Tune in, and be part of a conversation that transcends labels and builds understanding.

Life in lockdown for those at risk, with Lene Andersen
This final episode of the year encapsulates everything 2020 has been about. Poorva talks to writer and disability advocate Lene Andersen about the fear and anxiety of being someone who is high risk in the pandemic. They discuss the many ways in which our collective actions can not only be the difference between life or death for someone but also how that behavior impacts the day-to-day mental and physical wellbeing of those around us. They also talk about how to have a very merry Christmas when everything familiar and traditional feels so far away.
