S1 Ep15: Chinese takeaways and Clubhouse

In this episode, the legendary takeaway owner from Jade Park joins us for this episode. Jade (or should I say James) went from working in IT to running his own takeaway. He's also the Co-Founder of 'Asians in the UK' on Clubhouse every Monday at 8pm. A room where they have built a community on ESEA people and allies to come together and talk about important topics such as hate crime on Asians. A very honest conversation where I admitted to some mistakes on internalised racism and why I am unlearning and relearning.I also share my thoughts on the mass shootings that have happened in Atlanta, America and why we should be more careful on using the words 'massage parlour'.Please give Jade Park a follow: https://www.instagram.com/jvdepvrk and if you're in Moreton, Wirral, definitely place an order with them.

Award winning podcast* 🥈. Talking about life as a British born Chinese (BBC)/British Asian. The struggles that I've had to deal with whilst growing up in my mum and dad's takeaway in the 1980s/1990s. My parents are immigrants from HK/China and moved to the UK when they were teenagers. I was brought up being Chinese at home and English when I was outside of home - it felt confusing at the time as I couldn't find a sense of belonging. But now I am much older, I am proud of my Chinese heritage and I am proud to be British. I just want to share my story with people.* Silver award at British Podcast Awards 2022 in 'Moment of the Year' category. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
