Ep 8 - Elizabeth Kahn
from The Homegrown Podcast Hosted by Homegrown Crew
This week we have the amazing Elizabeth Kahn joining us. A consultant by day and actor / producer / creator by night, Elizabeth has a full life between her Minnesota roots and her Los Angeles home. Like our host Jonathan, Elizabeth is a Korean adoptee who was brought up in Mahtomedi, outside of St Paul Minnesota. We have a great discussion today about: Her upbringing in Minnesota and the multiple cultures she celebrated being in a diverse family and how that's given her an empathetic perspective on life. The trip to meet her biological & foster family from Korea. How Asian American representation in media effected her and leaned her into her decision to becoming an actor and representing the race herself. Asian American history not being taught in public education and how that effects how the rest of America interacts with Asian Americans. Her view as an Asian American and the Atlanta shootings. Give it a listen and enjoy some of that HomeGrown.
