Take a deep dive into unpacking the Asian identity in the West with Jeff and Isabella, two Asian-Australians who are still figuring it out too. Amidst trying to find other words synonymous to unpack, they delve into topics ranging from internalised racism and representation, all the way to the weight of expectations and why food can be so political. As I Am is a journey to understand the experience of being othered, whilst rejoicing in the uniqueness of a multi-faceted identity. The best way to support As I Am is to hit the follow/subscribe button, and to spread the good word with your friends and loved ones. Music by Sugiwa.

In our very first interview, we explore the topic of languages with our guest and friend Baopu He. Baopu wrote an excellent article detailing the Asian Australian ethnolect, and we explore this in more detail along with our thoughts on the future of language diversity in Australia, the difficulty of passing language on to subsequent generations, and much more. Check out Baopu's article: http://honisoit.com/2019/08/omagoor-the-quest-for-the-asian-australian-accent/?fbclid=IwAR1uaPv4xuudTjqcmXhdNqPzVcojdzIfeWHoTGa9tCB8WefBA_G-fEVJLsU
