In this episode, Caitlin Chin sits down with Emily Chi and Jenny Liu of Asian Americans Advancing Justice – AAJC, an DC national nonprofit whose mission is to advance civil and human rights for Asian Americans and to build and promote a fair and equitable society for all. Emily and Jenny discuss how false or harmful online narratives can affect the Asian American community in a variety of contexts, including elections and pandemics. In addition, they analyze various policy approaches to address the structural problem of race-based harmful or false online content, including cultural representation within technology companies, educational initiatives in schools, community-based outreach, and legislation.
