The History of Activist Tye Leung Schulze

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 38! The U.S. elections are coming up, so it's a fitting time to talk about the activist and suffragist Tye Leung Schulze. She broke barriers, but her life went far beyond being the first Chinese American woman to vote in a U.S. election. So in this episode, we go into more of the details of her incredible life and the the challenges she faced and overcame. To learn more about her as well as the lives of Chinese American women at that time, we highly recommend watching the Unladylike 2020 episode on her or the book Unbound Voices by Judy Yung. We open this episode by talking about some of the celebrations for people like Actress and Producer Sandra Oh and Paralympic champion Alice Tai. We close out the episode by talking about what we're listening to. Gen is listening to Sarah Kinsley's new album Escaper and Ted is listening to the audiobook Arsenic and Adobo by author Mia P. Manansala... and we highly recommend both! If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.
