In this episode, we're joined by Johnathan @jonahsahn , a pioneering content creator who began his journey in 2008. His unique perspective as a Black American and Filipino has made him a powerful voice at the intersection of Black and Asian identity. In 2020, he founded the Black and Asian Alliance Network, promoting solidarity between these communities during a time of heightened tension. Check out his podcast series, The Boys Are Black In Town @jonahsahn on YouTube.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • Video games and diversity
  • Traveling to Japan and what a "sense of belonging" looks like
  • Intersectionality of Black-ness and Asian-ness
  • Nuanced activism and standing for your beliefs
  • Doing the work to help the community
  • Performative activism and virtue signalling
