Unsilenced: Voices of Young Tibetans is a podcast series where we have conversations with young Tibetans who will offer an interesting view of their lives in exile and their future aspiration for Tibet and provide them with a platform to express themselves. The podcast is also a tribute to all those brave Tibetans in Tibet who were silenced both physically and mentally by the Chinese occupiers.

In this episode, we engage with Lobsang Soepa la, he is currently studying Tibetan at the College for Higher Tibetan Studies (Sarah) at Dharamshala. Born and brought up in Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh he is now telling the story of his land through artwork and illustration several children books. He helps the Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) and continues to learn more about Tibet.

In this podcast, Lobsang Soepa shares his experiences and journey as an artist, his tryst with identity and India's soft power capability. He has been working on the famed 'Khando Drowa Sangmo' folktale which is deeply tied with Tawang and tells us how comics are a means of preserving rich folklore passed throughout generations in this day and age. He stresses that artwork and illustration are means to gather support for the Tibetan cause. He further emphasises how his stay till now at Dharamshala (many refer to it as the exile Tibetan political capital) has been profound and life-changing.
