Comedian and Activist Sadia Azmat

In this episode of the Elevate Podcast, we talk to Sadia Azmat, a British Asian stand-up comedian from London. She is an American comedy aficionado and has a similar inimitable style of delivering hard punchlines.

Her work has been described as “witty” and “blunt” (The Guardian), with her style of delivery often compared to that of American comics like Amy Schumer or Sarah Silverman.

Sadia talks about her experience with discrimination against Southeastern Asian women. She discusses how she uses comedy to tackle issues of race, gender, and sexuality.
