Susanna Barkataki is a Yoga Unity Activist. She see a world where yoga is used as it was intended- as a tool for personal liberation and social justice.

Here in EmpressPodcast's very first episode, we explore the appropriation of yoga and South Asian culture as well as how South Asians specifically are grouped into the "model minority" myth.  I also ask why some people who experience racism deny that that white supremacy is the problem.
