Derek Tran and I chat about the rising anti-Asian hate crimes and what we can do to keep ourselves safe and sane during this time.

In this episode we talk about:

COVID and where we are at with vaccinations
Issues with performative social media activists
How allies can show up – with more actionable steps
The intersection of mindfulness and activism
Struggling to find our voice as Asian-Americans
Standing up within our romantic relationships to microaggressions
Why addressing cultural issues in Asia, by denigrating Asian-Americans don’t work
Our social media feeds full of trauma porn
Why we both still hate Chick-fil-A
How can keep ourselves safe from hate crimes and attacks
