I’m not sure, exactly, how to be Dead Amy. I’m trying to figure out what that means for me, what I become for the next few months. Anyone, I suppose, except people I’ve already been: Amazing Amy. Preppy ’80s Girl. Ultimate-Frisbee Granola and Blushing Ingenue and Witty Hepburnian Sophisticate. Brainy Ironic Girl and Boho Babe (the latest version of Frisbee Granola). Cool Girl and Loved Wife and Unloved Wife and Vengeful Scorned Wife. Diary Amy.

I am 10 and I am smiling uneasily as they point at my forehead and laugh, their stares pinning me to the ground and wiping my pride in being an Indian right off my face. I do not wear bindis out in public anymore. I get angry at my mother when she asks why. I am 13 and I am out with my parents after going to the temple; I’m wearing a pavadai, something that my grandma and mum - no, my amma - picked out for me with love and care. When I stumble across my friend, the look in her eyes when she sees what I am wearing makes me want to tear it right off. When I get home, I do. It is only the beginning, you see. You, white skin, pale girl, narrow nose, hair straight and soft as spin silver. Me, dark skin, dark eyes, hair wild and wavy and unruly. Me, with a culture that chokes me daily because of you. You laughed at me, white girl. You mocked me, spat at me, looked at me with contempt at scorn. You thought my bindi was a joke. You thought my gods were a joke. You thought my traditions and symbols and religion were jokes. 5 years on and you, white girl, are wearing coloured plastic bindis sold in Urban Outfitters. You have anOm tattooed on your ankle, never mind how much of a religious symbol it is to us. You have Ganesha’s face on your shirts. You reach out, white girl, (your hands give me nightmares; they have taken my identity right from under my feet) and call my deitiesmythological figures, you say myths are just a word, you’re reducing them to stories, you’re justifying what you do and all I can do is sit here and watch because THAT IS WHAT I HAVE DONE ALL MY LIFE. Because this is just another step in a war that I was in before I even knew how to fight. You, white skin, white girl, able to wear my culture like a second skin without worrying about its consequences - why not wear my skin, too? Wear my brown. Wear my shame at your laughter. Wear my disgust with myself, with my curry smell, with my mehndi. Wear my annoyance when someone asks me if I speak Indian - as if a country with over 200  LANGUAGES can be simplified to Indian. As if anything about my country is simple.

The first sip of tea is always the hardest.

that isn’t supposed to be inspirational, I’m just stating it’s fucking nerve-racking waiting for it to touch your lips and potentially having it melt your face off
