    On Being Asian American & Deconstructing Anti-Asian Hate

    On Being Asian American & Deconstructing Anti-Asian Hate

    This Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Song gets personal. Song and Sara have a conversation around Song's identity, and the role it has had in her career working on policy and using the law to defend the rights of the AAPI community. Song calls out the non-obvious violence (read, police violence and deportations) against the AAPI community, and what it would truly take to Stop Asian Hate.

Interesting, informative, and relevant to real life!

Love this podcast with Song and Sara!! They talk about the nuances of understanding sustainability with expertise but keep it accessible and interesting. I really appreciate the way they talk about what we all can do to live sustainably in a way that is both actually impactful and doable. Love it!!

Super digestible and covers a broad range of topics

Song and Sara help me de clutter the resources and ways to think about being an ethical consumer. They are thoughtful, engaging, and have great chemistry. I’m already using what I learned from them in making purchasing decisions.
