On our seventh conversation, we talked about one of the hardest topics to talk about - which is racism. Due to the current events that is happening globally - the Black Lives Matter movement, we decided to have this conversation to educate ourselves, spread awareness and to share it as a video and podcast to be able to set an example to start up conversations especially as Filipinos.
Being Asian, it is culturally taboo to talk about these topics, but we want to acknowledge the injustice that is plagueing the Black population in America as well as our own experiences and opinions about racism.
We encourage you all to start conversations like this to your friends, families, colleagues and many more, to normalise this kind of talks. Please have an open mind and the willingness to understand, even if it may be difficult.
