It's AAPI heritage month in the US and with the #stopAAPIhate campaign underway, I wanted to share what I've learned about the Asian American community in the US. In this episode, I share some of my key takeaways from the book, "Minor Feelings," a collection of very powerful essays by writer and poet Cathy Park Hong. I also discuss "Oppression Olympics" and allyship. Feel free to DM to correct me if I said anything incorrect in this episode. I'm learning and growing every day!
