A Request

I'm back!

Excited to announce Season 2 of Model Minority, and am so grateful for all the people who have grown to love this show. 

A quick request: I'm working on an upcoming episode about language, and I want to hear from YOU! Email me a 30 second - 1 min clip about what your native language means to you.

Email your clip to: modelminorityua@gmail.com 

Anyone is welcome to submit (including if you can't speak your native language or struggle with it) - your voice could end up in a future episode! Some themes you can talk about are:

• fears about being unable to speak or pass on your native language
• thoughts about the effectiveness of communicating in your mother tongue (i.e. expressing some ideas or themes more strongly in another language than in English)
• how English plays a role in our lives and identity in the U.S. as people of color
• your colonial history with English or another Western language

If you don't have anything to share, pass this episode on to a friend who might! Some easy ways to record a voice note are through the voice recorder app on your phone, or through Facebook messenger to my page Model Minority: Uniquely American.

So excited to be back, and even more so to hear from you! Cheers!
