Episode 3: Arun and Carrie

January 30, 2017 By lovingproject

Carrie, Arun, and their children

Arun and Carrie got married in 2001; Arun is Indian and Carrie is white. Both grew up in Northeast Ohio, and they now live in Philadelphia with their two children.

Arun grew up in a close-knit Indian community where arranged marriages were the norm; theirs was the first interracial marriage to be openly accepted in that community.

The couple talks about the long road it took to get there and the changes in attitudes within that community over the past 15 years.
