Episode description

Hey all! Join us for today's episode where Alina and Zoe talk about all things Marvel, superhero, Shang-Chi, and inclusive Asian representation in media related. We discuss limited South-Asian representation in media, as well as misrepresentation of East-Asians in media. The two talk about how limited Asian representation as superheroes, main characters, or love-interests impacted their perception of themselves. 

*note: this episode was recorded prior to the controversy surrounding Simu Liu occurred over twitter and media, so take what we say with a grain of salt regarding Simu himself!
