A few months ago @wkamaubell invited me, @lisalingstagram, and @bingchen of @goldhouseco to talk about Asian American representation in media over a 🔥 lunch at @cote_nyc. You can watch the episode with that convo and more ✨tonight✨ Sunday August 7th at 10pm est /7pm pst on @cnn. also a nice bonus that this ep was produced by Take Out alum @rakjet ! Im currently reading @asiansformentalhealth’s book Permission to Come Home and on ch5 which is about taking up space. starts with the questions ‘how does one reprogram a life spent in the margins? How do we unlearn the story that we do not deserve to be seen? How do we battle constant feedback that urges us to shrink and be essentially visible in a world that would rather silence us than see us truly for who we are?’ i still struggle with this but appreciate people in my life like Kamau, Lisa, and @aundre who encourage and remind to take up more space. 🖤 ____ Repost @wkamaubell: This Sunday at 10p ET / 7p PT on United Shades of America on @cnn, we are talking about Asian Americans in Media. And invited a bunch of my friends along with me. This episode features @lisalingstagram, @jennyyangtv, @sophchangnyc, @helencho, and more!* *One of the “more” is one of my best friends, @harikondabolu. The episode also features @juliej_won, @bingchen of @goldhouseco, @a.kochiyama, and Dragon Kids, the coolest group of podcasters you’ll ever meet. Tune in Sunday at 10p ET / 7p PT on @cnn. #wkamaubell #kamaubell #unitedshades #unitedshadesofamerica #stopasianhate
