It surprises me how much small bits of representation — in fiction — affect me as an adult. Thank you for giving voice to that notion in your article & for your moving story about the interview.

I felt similarly seeing a Jodi Whittaker Doctor Who story about Partition (Demons of the Punjab, 2019). By then, my days as a South Asian boy in 1970's Britain had long since passed, but I still teared up finally seeing characters like my family front & centre in Doctor Who.
