Show Notes

In light of the recent violent rhetoric and attacks directed at Asians and Asian Americans, these communities are fighting for justice and their own safety. What can we do to combat the racist tropes and stereotypes aimed at Asian communities? To start, we can listen to people like Canwen Xu share their experiences. Canwen was a high school senior at the time of this talk. She asks us to confront the damaging and sometimes dangerous ways Asians are othered in the US. This talk was filmed at TEDxBoise in 2016.
