  2. Race & Monstrosity in D&D

    5月4日

    Race & Monstrosity in D&D

    Where do orcs really come from? In this episode of the Asians Represent! podcast, Daniel and Drew sit down with Dr. Christopher LeCluyse, a professor of literature, media, and writing at Westminster University to discuss his new book, Race & Monstrosity in Dungeons & Dragons. Chris' work traces how depictions of “monstrous races” in the game are rooted in more than 2,000 years of history and how these influences continue to shape how race functions in the game. From ancient Greek descriptions of headless monsters to J.R.R. Tolkien's hierarchy of fantasy beings, this episode maps a clear picture of how real-world racial stereotypes became embedded in the DNA of fantasy gaming. CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions of racism, colonialism, violence, and the portrayal of monstrous races in fantasy media. In this episode, we cover: How Tolkien and Gygax "inherited", rather than invented, racial frameworks The parallel between the drow "evil black matriarchy" trope and the concurrent rise of the "welfare queen" stereotypes in American politics How race and power are manifested in early AD&D rules How 5th edition D&D's revised rules represent real progress, and where that work is still incomplete Alternative design approaches that deconstruct essentialism and gives players narrative agency over their ancestry Check out Race & Monstrosity in Dungeons & Dragons when it comes out next month - https://mcfarlandbooks.com/product/race-and-monstrosity-in-dungeons-dragons/.

    A Soldier for All Seasons

    In this powerful episode of Asians Represent, Daniel sat down with Dr. Melissa Karmen Lee, CEO of the Chinese Canadian Museum, to explore the overlooked history of Chinese Canadians during the Second World War and how their service became a turning point in the fight for equal rights in Canada. Recorded during a visit to Vancouver last summer, this conversation dives into the museum’s permanent exhibition, A Soldier for All Seasons, and reflects on the legacy of Chinese Canadian veterans who volunteered to serve a country that denied them the right to vote.
