“We don’t even have our own language,” says Mohan Siddi, a community
leader from Karnataka who worked closely with Duggleby on parts of his
project in January. “We speak Konkani in Karwar, close to Dharwar,
where people speak Marathi. Muslim Sidis speak Urdu and Gujarati. But we still have our music.”

...

“Siddi says he has plans to unite Africans across India. Last month,
he registered an organisation in Mumbai as a platform to contact
other Sidis in Sri Lanka and Pakistan. The group, he says, will work
for the community’s upliftment.“

...

“Because of discrimination, many look to marry outside the Sidi
community and dilute their African appearance. For some that is how
they can avoid this discrimination, but for many this is seen as the
very disappearance of the Sidi people themselves.”
