In this episode, we invited a pair of first year PhD students from Ethnic Studies in UC Berkeley. The first guest is AJ Kurdi, who is originally from Hungary. He had extensive grass-root organizing experience before joining the PhD program. His research focuses on how ethnic minority queer organizing shapes the priorities and political orientations of mainstream LGBTQI movements and public policies.
Our second guest is Derek Wu, who came from a theology and divinity background. A second generation Taiwanese Bay Area local, he is interested in the intersection of AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) communities and religion.
