Season 2, Episode 14: Standing With Our Sisters
The AAPI (Asian-American Pacific Islander) community is near and dear to our hearts in this time of collective grief and as a podcast with an Advisory Board that's 50% Asian-American, we felt it was necessary to have a conversation about the violent attacks against our AAPI brothers and sisters. Vivian Mabuni (host of Someday is Here) and Grace P. Cho (poet and speaker) have an honest, candid chat with us on how to listen well, support those affected by racism, and why being Asian is a beautiful thing in God's eyes.
