Every episode Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan is joined by a different guest to discuss and deconstruct two seemingly oppositional ideas (innocent/guilty, radical/moderate, secular/religious etc). In doing this we consider if things are really so simple, or if seemingly commonsensical binaries actually hides, obscures or allows for much more complicated political dynamics.

In episode 7 (final episode of Season 1) Suhaiymah discusses the binary of Pakistani/Balochi with Hanain Brohi. She is a PhD candidate in Applied Linguistics at Newcastle University, her study explores sisterhood in Muslim women, and the discourses of Otherness in their everyday lived experiences, she is interested in the use of language as a reflection of socio-cognitive ideologies. The discussion surrounds her Balochi identity and how it is both forced into "Pakistan" but also excluded from it both ideologically and culturally. The conversation connects more broadly to all nation-state boundaries and aks how ethnicity, nationality etc are constructed and what their consequences are.
