Ep. 16 - Rotten Asian American Characters

The Unverifieds, minus Liza for this episode, talk about the need to write and read more about despicable Asian American characters, and why a lot of Asian American writers seem to shy away from that. Holding up Tony Tulathimutte's novel Private Citizens as a refreshing break from that tendency, Chris and Filip delve deeper into Will and the toxic Asian American male archetype he represents.
