In this episode we sit down with advocate and social activist Owin Pierson to discuss his experience walking through the world as both queer and Asian-American. Since he began growing his social media following over five years ago, Owin has been heavily involved in major social movements, including attending Taiwan's celebrations for the legalization of gay marriage and (accidentally) becoming one of the faces of Instagram's guide to Stop Asian Hate. He opens up about a number of experiences that have shaped him into who he is today, and what prompted him to recently move to Hawaii. Owin also speaks on what he hopes to achieve with his platform, and how he believes we can actually enact change.
