Friends After 5

Stop AAPI Hate


Listen Later

Anti Asian hate crimes have risen to an all time high, increasing by over 1000% in some counties - a scary statistic that is barely garnering headlines in the media and news reports. Steph and Tina deep dive into a heavier topic this week, troubled by the atrocious crimes being committed against Asian Americans (Steph even does some research this time!). They discuss potential origins behind why these hate crimes are occurring, the model minority myth that has perpetuated deeply imbedded stereotypes against Asian Americans, and offer resources/organizations that you can contact to help. They also discuss their own experiences with veiled racism, and end it on a more light-hearted segment on Asians in media representation where Tina confesses her love for Korean men, specifically, one Korean man (ooooh who can it be?!).
