Asian NoMaD

By Ma.D

Welcome to the Asian NoMaD podcast where we will mostly be discussing East Asian diaspora and East Asians in Britain and heavily talk about racism and related issues. Presented by a British Born Chinese MaD-Man (:D) Dan.
The idea is to give us Asians in the West that aren't necessarily in North America, a larger voice and platform on the internet.

We may also just generally talk about current issues and news in the world today, and here's hoping you will join me on this personal journey of learning and growth.
Mainly though, I want to highlight the unique struggles and experiences we have as part of East Asian diaspora, with the aim that you are not alone, even if you feel like you are.

Episode 2: Identity and Self-Hate

This (again, rough) episode covers issues surrounding identity and the incredibly important topic of self-hatred, often a worringly common side effect of the racism that affects all victims of racism. I cover my personal experiences with both, why it's important future generations are fully aware of self-hate, and how Malcom X addressed it within his own communities.
