“EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!!!” – Did you read that with an accent?! Did you not? Don’t worry if you did! Haha, accents are prominently used and well practiced as comedic tools. But when does this cross the line from harmless comedy to blatant racism? In this episode, we tackle social media and comedy’s effects on Asian stereotypes. We explore our own biases as Asian Americans growing up in Asian communities, and how that informs our view of controversial viral comedians such as Uncle Roger aka Nigel Ng. Also, WE’RE BACK! We know we’ve been away for quite a while (a WHOLE year to be exact, smh), BUT @sassyasiantimes have returned and we’re here to stay. Thank you so much for tuning in, listening, and supporting us! See you in the next one!
