In our first episode of the Silver Lining podcast, Columbia Chinese history doctoral student Yanjie Huang discusses the notion of sacrifice and how it has evolved since the 1960s to the present day in China.

Episode 2 (Peter Moody): When the Medium Becomes More Powerful Than the Message

Silver Lining is a podcast that offers nuanced conversations about East Asian societies in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. We wanted to bring in the expertise of graduate students studying East Asia to make the world of academia more accessible and less esoteric under the guidance of the Columbia Global Collaboratory.
​
By hearing from experts about topics ranging from economic policy to popular culture, we hope to offer a candid exploration of ideas relating to East Asia and the pandemic. 

 
Few podcasts cover East Asian current affairs.

Now, more than ever, we believe it is imperative to listen, empathize, and find the silver lining.
