57 | Inequality & Opportunity | A Review of "Maid in India" with Tripti Lahiri | Part 1

"Maid in India" is a masterful work that not only uncovers some of the biggest challenges to India's informal labor sector, but some of the greatest opportunities it presents. Jessica rates it as one of the best books she has read on Indian culture as a whole, as it highlights the invisible aspects of hierarchy and classism through storytelling and hard data.

Tripti Lahiri, Author, joins Jessica for an enlightening conversation about the book and personal experiences of grappling with the patron/client relationship of employing domestic help in India. This is Part 1 of a 2 Part Conversation.


A video of Tripti and Jessica speaking can be found here on YouTube.
