    I am a Ph.D. candidate in Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of Kentucky. I am looking for people/volunteers to take part in an interview about interfaith romance/marriage. I would like to discuss the social and political experiences of the Indian Hindu diaspora in the US.

    I am looking for participants who are adults (more than 18 years old) and identify as Hindu and belong to Indian (Asian) ethnicity. Also, the volunteers should be living in the US for at least 5 years (or were born/brought up in the US). If you are interested then, please fill out this google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1y_fl-YWwsVmBl-ry_8e4cQoqlUjo8xUE7PBvP8vsgHc/edit
