Asian Americans are often overlooked as racial minorities in the US, and during my time as a postdoc at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics, I've made it my mission to dismantle the model minority myth that pits people of color against each other. The invisibility of Asian Americans is due in part to broader exclusions, but also partially due to Asian Americans being unwilling to partake in difficult conversations. I hope that my work empowers people to speak up against anti-Asian hate, but also pushes Asian Americans to challenge racism within our own community and towards other racial/ethnic groups.
