Lila Yadhavar and Nikhil Shah are Indian-Americans from dominantly Caucasian schools located in Virginia and San Francisco, respectively. The only thing that's different between them is that Lila struggles to fit in with this society, and for Nikhil, a.k.a. Nick, it was a piece of naan. When they both enroll into Stanford University, they find themselves introduced to a large, robust, non-assimilated South Asian student community. The two meet and discover the world of fusing two contrasting cultures while learning more about themselves. COVER BY guardedsoul BUY YOUR COPY TODAY http://a.co/48RBvVX

I was the 6th-grade "slut." And I kept a diary. So I decided to create The UnSlut Project in the hopes that my own diary entries could provide some perspective to girls who currently feel trapped and ashamed. I am publishing these entries one at a time, without changing a single word except for the names of the people involved. My limited commentary, which is confined to brackets in each entry, is meant to provide the relief of my current perspective, fifteen years later. The UnSlut Project: Working to undo the dangerous slut shaming in our schools, communities, media, and culture by sharing knowledge and experiences.
