On this edition of Protected Speech, Ravi Kapur and Jonathan Choe discuss how Diwali has become mainstream thanks largely to an effort to court the Indian American and South Asian diaspora by politicians. Rishi Sunak made history by becoming the first UK Prime Minister of Indian descent, but faces an uphill battle to right the ship as the economy struggles. Jonathan Choe explains how "Housing First" has been failing and the double standard sports figures make to have access to global markets. and political stances.
