Episode 94- Awesome Asian Women

We had an absolute blast talking to Karen Wang Diggs, author of the book “Awesome Asian Women”! Karen was a freakin’ delight! She’s the real deal-a true intersectional feminist and a gifted storyteller with a passion for lifting women up. Her book contains inspiring stories of over 120 women, from Empress Wu Zetian to Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth (who was just on Stephen Colbert and we love!) It is going to be a fixture on the Bitchstory bookshelf! ​You can find Karen on Instagram at @herstoryinhx​Her website is herstoryinhistory.com​Buy the book here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-book-of-awesome-asian-women-becca-anderson/21690746 (Or on Amazon if you must)You can read about the women we discuss on the pod on my blog every week: ⁠Kellymcclain.blogspot.com⁠If you'd like to contribute to our work here at Bitchstory, we'd be thrilled to receive your financial support so we can keep going and maybe actually not be in the red.

Welcome to Bitchstory! We are uncovering history's forgotten heroines and badasses. Most of the women covered on this show have been left out of the history books for reasons you can guess. Some are names you know, some are women that history has completely snubbed. We are revising history to be fun, inclusive, entertaining, and of course, feminist as f*ck!
