    K-pop has been experiencing a recent resurgence with groups like BTS and Blackpink gaining international popularity. As Asian Americans who grew up with a different era of K-pop artists, we reflect on the recent rise of the genre, our experiences as fans, the fine line between appreciating a different culture’s art vs. fetishizing it, and more!

    After watching the 2021 film Moxie, Nelle, Kilo, and Cece have a discussion on teen representation in media and its impact on the youth.

    S2 Episode 5: Combating Anti-Asian Racism

    CW: racial violence, gender violence. As Asian American women, our intention with this podcast is to share our perspectives on various topics that are often considered sensitive or taboo. With the rise in hate crimes against the Asian community we found it important to have a candid conversation about the violence directed towards our community. We discuss how anti-Asian sentiment is connected to the white supremacy ingrained in our society, the ways in which intersectionality is connected to the recent hate crimes, what meaningful solidarity can look like, and more.
