<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>My guests on this episode of Talking Taiwan about the topic of Asian hate are Peter Yang Zhao and Steve Lee. Both have been active in the fight to stop Asian hate crimes, and have lots to share on the topic of Asian hate. Peter Yang Zhao, is an anti-Asian hate crime activist, and Tourette’s syndrome activist. A quick glance at his Instagram handle @fabulously_tourette reveals how outspoken he is on these topics. We will have him back on as a guest on a future episode to talk about his Tourette’s syndrome and advocacy work. Sergeant Steven Lee is a 16-year veteran of the NYPD, a whistleblower fighting to reform police corruption and anti-Asian hate crime activist. In 2020 he ran for State Assembly in District 40.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2><strong>Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:</strong></h2>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>It’s been nearly a year since we started publishing episodes of Talking Taiwan on a weekly basis at the beginning of this pandemic, and I’ve really enjoyed seeing the listenership grow.</p>
<p>I’d like to acknowledge our listeners here, especially those who have reached out to me directly. One listener who reached out, said that episode 99 with Professor Scott Simon was particularly eye opening.</p>
<p>That led me to think about how to cover the topic of Taiwan’s indigenous people and to interview Tony Coolidge (in episodes 112 and 113) about discovering his indigenous roots and his work with the indigenous people of Taiwan. The two episodes I did with Tony are now among the most listened to.</p>
<p>Recently we’ve also gotten some wonderful anonymous reviews from listeners: “Amazing podcast. Really enjoy listening to it, love the variety of people that come on!” and just a few days ago, another listener wrote: “Love all the topics that has been discussed in Talking Taiwan!”</p>
<p>We are so grateful for all of this feedback. Your reviews help Talking Taiwan to get discovered. It’s great to know that we have a regular listener base, and that our content is resonating with you. Thank you for reaching out and letting us know how we’re doing!</p>
<p>This week’s episode features part two of my interview with Dr. Karen Tsai about her work with Donate PPE, a nonprofit that she has co-founded and that has raised over $150,000 to date. This is part two of my interview with her after speaking with her previously in <a href="https://staging.talkingtaiwan.com/dr-karen-tsai-brings-monster-dance-childrens-book-to-life-ep-120/">episode 120</a> about how she spearheaded the creation of <strong>Monster Dance</strong>, a children’s book created to address the needs of children dealing with a world changed by COVID-19.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:</strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>How and why Dr. Tsai started the nonprofit organization Donate PPE with Deyu Kong</li>
<li>How the Donate PPE team is entirely Asian American</li>
<li>The work of Donate PPE and how it has delivered PPE to different low income, communities in need</li>
<li>The various companies and organizations that Donate PPE has worked with to get donations distributed</li>
<li>How Donate PPE has made donations internationally</li>
<li>How Donate PPE has adjusted as the situation with the pandemic has changed over time</li>
<li>How Donate PPE’s initially targeted hospitals and health care workers but later expanded to nursing homes, free clinics, schools, underprivileged communities, Navajo Nations, rural areas in the Midwest, vaccination sites</li>
<li>Asian hate crime advocacy organizations</li>
<li>The different distribution challenges that Donate PPE has had to deal with</li>
<li>How Donate PPE dealt with the distribution challenges presented by the partnership with Norwex to Distribute a Million Masks to Healthcare Workers and how Citizens of Humanity assisted</li>
<li>How Donate PPE got its nonprofit 501(c)(3) status during the pandemic by May 2020</li>
<li>How Dr. Tsai has worked full-time as a physician while running Donate PPE</li>
<li>How the Donate PPE website has changed over time</li>
<li>What’s in the future for Donate PPE once COVID-19 gets more under control</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>Since the beginning of the pandemic I’d been hearing about more and more cases of Asian hate attacks that seemed to be related to blaming the Chinese for spreading COVID.  It’s been a year so you could say that I’m kind of late to the game in addressing it here.</p>
<p>Perhaps it’s because there wasn’t a single galvanizing event like the murder of George Floyd that mobilized the Black Lives Matter movement.</p>
<p>So why now? It wasn’t because of the Atlanta spa shootings that left 8 dead, 6 of whom were Asian women. It was due to a text conversation between friends.</p>
<p>In early March, my friend Ariane reached out to me on a group text conversation expressing how troubled she was about all the attacks on Asians and wondering what she could do stop it.</p>
<p>Last summer I’d found myself asking similar questions after the murder of George Floyd which is why I specifically sought guests who could talk about Black Lives Matter and what had led up to this latest iteration of the movement and the deeply rooted historical background. I realized that we all need to speak up when we see things like this happening and to let others know that it will not be tolerated. We need to create more awareness with whatever resources and platforms we have.</p>
<p>Now it’s time for me to walk the talk on the issue of Anti-Asian hate attacks by addressing it here on Talking Taiwan.</p>
<p>I don’t think what’s been happening is strictly a COVID-related issue that is going to go away. Actually, anti-Asian sentiments have been around and have surfaced and resurfaced in many different forms in the past. This will be the first of a few episodes about Asian hate.</p>
<p>For this episode I’ve invited Suelain Moy and her son Otter on to the podcast to talk about how they recently dealt with being the target of Asian hate.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>About Suelain Moy</strong></p>
<p>Suelain Moy is a New York City mother, writer, journalist, author, and editor. Her writing has appeared in many outlets, including Parenting, American Baby, Entertainment Weekly, aMagazine, Good Housekeeping, The Fiscal Times, and the New York Daily News. She is the author of <strong>Names to Grow On: Choosing A Name Your Baby Will Love</strong>. She graduated from Yale, where she earned a BA in English and studied with bell hooks. Suelain was the first Asian face in the Children’s Division of Ford Models. She comes from a long line of merchants, small business owners, teachers, and law enforcement officers in the Chinatown community, where her family has lived for generations since 1922. She wrote <strong>“The 16 Safety Guidelines for the Parents of Asian Children”</strong> in 2021, during a wave of anti-Asian violence and hate crimes in the U.S. They are based on her experiences with racism and misogyny on the streets of New York. You can read her personal essays, including the safety guidelines, at <a href="http://suelain.com/">suelain.com</a>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>About Otter Lee</strong></p>
<p>Otter Lee is a queer actor, comedian, writer, and voiceover artist born and raised in New York City. He currently plays Otter Lin on Stephen Colbert Presents: Tooning Out the News, a political cartoon on Paramount+ that airs as part of The Late Show. His standup, sketch, and improv have appeared at such venues as Buzzfeed, UCB, Face-Off Unlimited, Caveat, Union Hall, The Magnet, and The Asian American Writer’s Workshop. Otter co-produced, hosted, and took the stage for NYC’s First Asian Comedy Festival at the PIT in January 2020, selling out multiple blocks and empowering numerous comedians and groups. He followed this with Crazy Talented Asians and Friends, a virtual showcase at Flushing Town Hall. A graduate of NYU’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study with a degree in acting, playwriting, and history, Otter also trained extensively in the disciplines of classical and musical theatre, improv, and voice acting.  Otter’s performances and projects have been written up and featured in The New York Times, Time Out New York, AsianCrush, and World Journal.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>March 23<sup>rd</sup> will mark the seventh anniversary of the short-lived occupation of the Executive Yuan by students involved in the Sunflower Movement of 2014. The Sunflower Movement began when students and activists occupied the Legislative Yuan on March 18, 2014 in an effort to block the passage of a trade pact between Taiwan and China. At a press conference on March 23, then President Ma Ying-jeou stated his resolve in passing the trade pact.</p>
<p>This led to the students attempt to occupy the Executive Yuan. Five days afterward, on March 28, 2014, I spoke to Eric Chang also known as Ahbying, who was there that night about what he saw firsthand and experienced that night.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>His candid conversation with a cop at the Executive Yuan before the scene turned violent</li>
<li>His firsthand account of what he saw and experienced the night that students tried to occupy the Executive Yuan</li>
<li>How he reacted when the police hit him</li>
<li>The media’s coverage of what happened on March 23<sup>rd</sup>at the Executive Yuan</li>
<li>His thoughts of the occupation of the Legislative Yuan and Sunflower Movement</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This week’s guest is Jason Wang who we’ve had on Talking Taiwan previously. In Episode 102 Jason spoke with me about how his advisory firm Cypress Rivers started producing PPE to support health care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, through an effort called Face Shields for the First Line. At the time he mentioned that Face Shields for the First Line would be transitioning into the making of face masks. So we’re welcoming Jason back to tell us what’s happened since we last spoke.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:</strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>The continuing spread of COVID-19 and new variants which necessitates continuing to practice safe hygiene measures such as social distancing, hand washing and wearing masks</li>
<li>The double mask that STC Next Health is producing which consists of an outer shell and inner filter</li>
<li>The masks are antimicrobial due to the use of nano-coated silver</li>
<li>Other products that STC Next Health produces like antimicrobial zinc oxide tape for use on common high touch/high traffic areas such as door handles or hand railings</li>
<li>Talking Taiwan listeners can use the code: talkingtaiwan at checkout to get a 10% discount off their purchase of items from STC Next Health</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:</strong></h2>
<p>Since March of this year, we’ve been publishing new episodes of Talking Taiwan on a weekly basis, so for our last episode of 2020, we thought it would be fun to look back and see which were the top five episodes of the year. It comes as no surprise that 2 of the episodes are related to the Coronavirus pandemic.</p>
<p>Through it all, it’s been amazing to see our listenership grow. In fact, I’ve really enjoyed hearing from listeners who’ve reached out to tell me how much they’ve enjoyed listening to Talking Taiwan. Thanks for all of the positive feedback. We look forward to continuing to deliver new episodes about interesting people and stories connected to Taiwan.</p>
<p>Which episode was your favorite of 2020? Let us know by leaving a comment below.</p>
<p>Don’t forget to check out our new feature starting in the new year called “Talking Taiwan Shorts.” We will be creating 100 short one-minute videos for our YouTube channel highlighting a GREAT segment from one of our podcast episodes. Be sure to check out Talking Taiwan’s YouTube channel, or go to our website here for “Talking Taiwan Shorts.”</p>
<p>Below are links to the top five Talking Taiwan episodes of 2020. Wishing you a wonderful rest of 2020, and a Happy New Year!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>CORRECTION: At the 15:32-minute in the interview, Dr. Keating remarks, “We are 75 years at the end of World War I.” What he meant to say is that, &#8220;We are 75 years at the end of World War II.&#8221;</p>
