Crab Mentality with Abby Albino and Mark Vallena of Rise Tribe
Manage episode 275526410 series 2808419
When a crab in a bucket tries to escape, other crabs instinctively try to drag it back down. This episode, we talk about how this is a mentality prevalent among Asian cultures — from being competitive with one another to thinking that “there can only be one” Asian in the room — whether at work or in social groups. We speak to Abby Albino and Mark Vallena, founders of Rise Tribe, a collective aiming to power the next Filipinx leaders, on how they’re beating the narrative by supporting and making space for one another to thrive. From unpacking the toxic practice of “being the best model minority” to opening space up for those most disenfranchised, we hope this episode sheds light on how we can make space for one another.
