ARTWORK: Navita Wijeratne 27.

NOT BEING BROWN ENOUGH Anojni Skanthan “You’re Indian, right?” “No, I am Sri Lankan!” “Yeah, same thing.” So, where is Sri Lanka, you may be wondering? Well according to Google, Sri Lanka is located 65km off the coast of South-East India. Sri Lanka has its own distinct culture and geography; hence it is not India. Please stop saying so for future reference. Thank you. The first six years of my life were spent in this beautiful country. I have fond memories of eating malu paan (fish bun) and chocolate pineapple gateau in my Montessori. With bakeries found on every corner and street, I can guarantee the bestbaked goods probably come from Sri Lanka!
