Conversations about heritage

Inheriting unravels family legacies across generations. The podcast explores the lives of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) families, tracing singular historical events to demonstrate how they echo through generations, impacting the private, personal lives of AAPI communities.

How do we talk about our family histories? In the eponymous episode, host Emily Kwong is joined by guests who reflect on their emotional experiences in an academic light. Psychologist Sherry C. Wang and ethnic studies lecturer Carol Kwang Park guide listeners on how to begin conversations with their family members to better understand their family’s past and the weight of inherited legacies.

The podcast presents thoughtful, emotional conversations about heritage, even if you aren’t AAPI. The story is universal even though this podcast focuses on one people. While the specifics may differ, most of us understand the impact and importance of intergenerational memory, good or bad.

WHERE TO LISTEN- You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and AmazonMusic.
