S2E4 EMERGENCY PODCAST/AAPI CHECK-IN w/Erin Quill & Pearl Sun - a podcast by David Goldsmith
from 2021-03-28T10:00
In a departure from the music, bells & whistles of our usual episode, Bry & Dave check in on their friends/work colleagues Erin Quill (Avenue Q, the Fairy Princess Diaries blog @fairyprincessdiaries.com) and Pearl Sun (Come From Away, If/Then) in the wake of the anti-Asian murders in Georgia and the rise in hate crimes since the pandemic, to see how they’re holding up and to hear their perspectives as artists, activists, and women of Asian descent. Bry & Dave mostly listen as these two remarkable women unpack with candor, pain, wisdom and humor their experiences as parents, children of immigrants and American citizens, a discussion of the reluctance to call a hate crime a hate crime, and what may be going on in the “Oppression Olympics” among marginalized communities. An unmissable episode.
