#StopAsianHate a Conversation Pt.1
Description
In this episode, Jordan and Ambree are joined by Alyssa Sunew (@alyssasunew), an Asian-American friend of the podcast. In the first part of this two week conversation, the three discuss the recent rise in attacks against Asian-Americans. The backdrop of the conversation is the recent mass shooting in Atlanta in which 8 people were killed, 6 of whom were Asian- American women by a white gunman.
