Go Ahead, Assimilate! w/ Indian-American Actress Anjali Bhimani

This week's guest is none other than Indian-American actress, and bestselling author Anjali Bhimani (Ms. Marvel, Overwatch 2, Critical Role, Apex Legends). Anjali was born in Cleveland and grew up in Orange County, to immigrant parents from India. She describes her childhood as a time in which her parents created an environment where knowledge was more important than cultural identity. 

We talk being small vs. feeling small, her journey as an Indian-American actress from Orange County to Broadway, stereotypes, superheroes, mythology, her new bestselling book, and why she would eat Daniel Craig.
