Give a listen to learn more about the Tibetan American experience and we're wishing everyone and their families good health and prosperity this year! Happy Lunar New Year and Tashi Delek!

Oakland Tech is one of the most diverse schools in the country, and Chosang Tenzin, a Tibetan American and high school senior, had looked forward to going there. But, she was disappointed. The high school's academic tracking programs, which schools often use to attract more affluent parents, contributed to in-school segregation. In this episode of tbh, Chosang talks to her friends and education experts to understand what the school can do to be better at integrating.
Tenzin Khedup, a Solutions Consultant at AppNexus, shares about his childhood growing up in the NorthEast region of India and attending Lower TCV (Tibetan Children’s Village). We discuss his transition from India to America. He remembers attending school in Madison, Wisconsin and having a designated Tibetan translator for help. Khedup recalls feeling like a minority among minority as a Tibetan American, and recognizing a shift in the default language he uses to process ideas and communicate, from Tibetan to English. His transition to college was smoother due to the college preparation program he attended almost every weekend, and went onto work at a consulting job straight out of college. He shares how it is to work in the corporate world, and how to navigate it. Khedup plans to work for the next decade or so and hopefully volunteer by giving back to the community.

Ngawang Losel was sent away from Tibet by his parents when he was 12 years old in order to escape the Chinese Communist rule. He has been in exile ever since. Growing up in India and Israel he became a musician, songwriter, sound healer and passionate peace activist with a drive to create a more peaceful and compassionate world for everyone. Ngawang is fluent in five languages (Tibetan, Hebrew, English, Hindi and Chinese) and these unique language skills landed him the extraordinary opportunity to interpret for His Holiness the Dalai Lama in 2002. All of Ngawang’s music is a humble expression of an exiled Tibetan American heart longing to see home and see peace everywhere in the world.
