In this episode, host Amanda Padgett talks about the history of our criminal justice system, and the discriminatory policies that have negatively impacted criminal justice and prison "reform" within the last 40 years. This is a pretty heavy episode, but it has a lot of important information. Stay tuned for part 2!

In this episode, Ila goes over the what, why, and how's of implicit biases: what is it, why do they occur, and how can we tell if we have implicit biases? Ila also goes over everyday examples of biases in our daily lives, including the correlations between implicit biases and movements such as the Black Lives Matter movement. She also touches on her own personal biases, and her thoughts after taking Harvard University's Implicit Bias test.

From as far back as the Black Plague to as recent as the corona virus, discrimination and scapegoating has ingrained into pandemics. There has been a clear surge of discrimination against Chinese-Americans and hate crimes have skyrocketed. To spread awareness about this surge, I dedicated this podcast to talk about recent events with my fellow Asian-American friends and how they are impacted, as well. Especially during this time of hardship, please be kind to one another and unite as a community instead of hurting each other.'
