Send us Fan MailHost: Kyle LeungPodcast LinktreeWhat Kind of Asian Are You? Podcast Instagram Guest: Therese Neri BlogTwitterTherese Neri is a first generation Asian American (Filipino) nurse living in Houston, Texas. She is also an artist and weeb on the side when she's not busy keeping patients alive at the hospital. The art that she does focus on the ethnic minority groups of Asia (check out her socials to see them!). In our conversation, we talked about her upbringing, her experience with racism in real life and online, her experience with self hate while she was growing up, her thoughts on Asian representation (don't forget Black and Brown Asian representation!), reconnecting with her roots, feeling more love in Asia than she does in America, the inter-community racism that goes on within the Asian Diaspora and her artwork. We covered a lot of good stuff and lots of food for thought.  Thank you for listening! Make sure to follow my guest and also this podcast!
