@thedermresident: As a Bengali-American, I used to simplify my identity—‘Yeah, I’m basically Indian or Pakistani.’ But as I’ve grown, I’ve realized the power of owning my heritage. Bangladesh has its own language, history, and culture, and I won’t condense that to fit someone else’s expectations. Embracing my uniqueness is a journey of pride. #BengaliPride #Bangladeshi #CulturalIdentity #bangladesh🇧🇩

To those commenting that Indians are Bengali. There’s a region in India, West Bengal that are also Bengali in the ethnic sense as they both speak the same language and share similar cultural traditions. My family’s from Bangladesh and are ethnically identified as Bengali hence the video, but TECHNICALLY we’d be called Bangladeshi based solely off nationality. But ethnically, we are all fam 🫶🏾

Bro, one of my classmates thought Bangladesh was the capital in India, many of my classmates thought it was a small city.

Idk why I would’ve assumed Bengali was a regional ethnic identity versus a nationality . I guess because in English according to the naming convention it would make sense to an English speaker that it would be “Bangladeshi” or “Bangladeshian”. I’ve just assumed that the whole time this video was informative ! Where does the name Bengali come from like the roots ?

Yup, I will ALWAYS make it a point to distinct myself, because independence and liberation are what our ancestors fought for, it’s the least I could do!
