Can't Pathshala: Bangla PowerPoint Party

Can't Pathshala is in session: A Bangla PowerPoint Party with the most random presentations, most unhinged takes and the most delicious food.

Bangladeshi culture isn't the most mainstream or popular as a concept. We often get confused with Indians (average pet peeve of a Bangali) and we'd like to change that, tastefully, through humor and community. So, please come learn about the random country that's the second largest exporter of clothes and has the longest beach in the world but you may not know much about. Did we mention, you get to try Bangladeshi food? Yeah, there's gonna be food. Jussayin. The food is great. Peer reviewed, tried and tested, can confirm.

The goal of the event is for people to learn about Bangladeshi culture (especially folks who aren't Bangali but also folks who are, and might learn something new) and get to meet some cool folks.

If you walk out of the event knowing more about Bangladesh than you did (whether or not you wanted to) and having met someone you didn't before the event, we'd consider the event a success.

Have a crazy idea? Send us your hottest take on anything as long as it somehow connects to our Bangla culture. For example, "Why it's justified to exile someone from BD for not liking tea", "Shutki vs. Korolla: An Analysis"

Anyways, you get the point. Send us your ideas, come to the event where a bunch of people who have nothing better to do will hear you out with full attention.
