Asian Representation in Media

We're back for Season 2! In our first episode, we talk about our thoughts on House of Ho's first episode and the entire season of Bling Empire (spoiler alerts, obviously) and how we feel about Asian Americans being represented on reality shows. We also get into the quality of the representation we've been getting and the ways our stories are told in media. Most of all, we're so excited to have more and more stories coming out featuring characters that look and feel like us and the people we know. But representation doesn't necessarily translate into equality as we've seen with the rise in violence against the AAPI community. We need to speak up and fight back against the structures of power that keep white supremacy in place and harm all POC. 

Here's a compilation of resources and organizations to donate to and ways to support the AAPI community by Twitter user @sasponella
