Asian-American Representation on Reality TV

Each May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, which is dedicated to recognizing the community’s contributions to the United States history and culture. In honor of this month and to confront the rise of hatred directed towards Asian Americans (#StopAsianHate), RHAP podcasters Kevin McLain (@AsianNarc) and Sasha Joseph (@funSize_04) discuss the important issue of Asian American representation on reality television.

Together, these podcasters review some of the most common tropes and narratives given to Asian American contestants and cast members. They also discuss their experiences as Asian American individuals and as consumers of reality television.
