A follow up discussion on the importance of understanding how Asian Americans continue to be targets of hate, and how AAPI females have been fetishized in US culture.

In this episode, we will discuss: 

• How the Atlanta spa shooting has unearthed the issue of Asian women experiencing covert sexism and fetishization in US culture. 
• US history and Asian relations. The Page Act, Chinese Exclusion Act, and how Asian women became viewed as "comfort women" in war times.
• Perspectives from an Asian American adoptive female and her White parents (the learnings we encounter)
• How we can begin to learn compassion for one another, by acknowledging how history has hurt people--and how we can move forward by listening to the stories of others.
