I think Indians Americans really got integrated into the arts at a very rapid pace in the last few years. Would have thought we would have an entire Thursday night lineup on NBC having at least one Indian regular character on every single show of the night in addition to CBS having two shows with one Indian character on the same night!!!!! I don’t think even Chinese or Korean americans, who have been more visible on American TV and in films longer than Indians have had that kind of visibility on one night.

Thanks SM as this is the first indian blog i ever visited on a regular basis. You had everything from Anna to Razib in terms of writer styles. Good luck to everyone. I do not doubt one of the readers here will start their own blog.

Do you think someone like Abhi could give aspiring bloggers a rundown of what it takes financially and timewise to run a blog like this? It would make for an educational blog item. P.S.: someone please get rid of the capchas.

I haven’t commented in years, due to a demanding work schedule and more restrictive internet use ;0) but I have continued reading on a regular basis. I cannot put into words how much this community has meant to me. It has allowed me to articulate a texture to my pride in being a South Asian American. And as a mixed Desi-American, the Mutiny let me participate in and identify with my roots in a way that I had never been able to do before. I started reading in 2004 when I felt too shy to join in, but slowly I remembered that I too belong to the South Asian community both here and in real life. I can’t say anything else except “thank you” and “this will be missed.” I hope you all choose to maintain the site without updating it so that all of us shy lurkers have a touchstone to return to. Thank you thank you thank you.

It is very sad that it has to end.

But i am still hoping April 1st will not be the end of sepia.
