#6 Unpacking the "Good Immigrant" trap with writer Frankie Huang

In this episode, I talk to Beijing American writer, illustrator and strategist Frankie Huang on the myth of the model minority in the wake of anti-Asian violence, the weaponization of gratitude, racial microaggressions, and what it's like to be asked whether you'd prefer your home country or the country you chose to live in, over and over.

The past few weeks have seen an outrage in India over the rape and murder of Manisha, a 19-year-old Dalit woman in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh.

She was formerly a consultant for #dalitwomenfight and co-founder of Dalit History Month. On this episode, we discuss what it means to “pass the mic”, the inherent problems with the term, why it’s important to be anti-caste and how to be a good ally.

#2 : "What’s the constitutional procedure to deal with not-normals?" with NY politician Lindsey Boylan

In the second episode of Minor Feelings, we spoke to New York Democrat politician Lindsey Boylan. Boylan ran for Congress in the NY Democratic primary in June 2020 from the 10th district. She’s been particularly frank about her tumultuous and difficult childhood, her ability and foresight to seek therapy early on, and dealing with postpartum depression after the birth of her first child. She was previously Deputy Secretary of Economic Development to Governor Andrew Cuomo, and we talk about the discourse around mental illness in political spheres, and what it does to your mental health to project everlasting perfection as a politician.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
