We discuss the recently released Netflix movie Tigertail and how major themes of this Taiwanese immigrant story relate to our own experiences and those of our parents. Tigertail was written and directed by Alan Yang (writer on Master of None, Parks and Rec) and is loosely based on his father’s story of sacrifice in order to pursue the American Dream.

05. A Tiger’s Tale of Finding Home

Hosts and life-long best friends Angela Lin and Jesse Lin explore their identities as Asian-Americans through the lens of their first-generation upbringings and how those influences have shaped how they see the world and their place in it. 

Each episode explores a different topic of identity or common struggle, with many episodes featuring special guests from both the Asian and broader POC communities bringing their unique perspectives, showing us that there's so much more that connects us than divides us.
