Acclaimed painter and now-author Hyeseung Song has written a searing coming-of-age memoir for fans of Crying in H Mart, Minor Feelings, and the film Minari. Entitled Docile: Memoirs of a Not-So-Perfect Asian Girl, it follows the daughter of ambitious Asian American immigrant parents and Hyeseung's own search for self-worth.

【聊了什么The What】 “Minor Feelings”是由韩裔美国作家诗人Cathy Park Hong的一本书，通过回忆录、文化批评和历史回顾的方式探讨了亚裔美国人流动的身份、情感和经历。作者自己作为一个“东亚女儿”和“少数族裔作家”的多重身份让她能敏锐地感受一系列仿佛已经成为日常的羞耻、愤怒和自我怀疑。在美国这样一个高度种族化的社会，亚裔往往被塑造成“模范少数族裔”，他们的勤奋和成功成了主流社会维护现状的工具。然而，当他们感受到种族歧视时，这套话术往往又会阻止亚裔美国人的表达。这些因为边缘身份产生的”微妙情感“（minor feelings）与美国关于种族的主流叙事相冲突，和亚裔美国人这个群体一样在黑白分明的种族讨论中被忽视或误解。 这本书最近被翻译成了中文在中国发表，名为《少数派的感受》。我们也借此契机请到我们的好朋友，杜克大学教授周成荫来谈谈种族意识、模范少数族裔神话以及历史事件对个人和集体身份的影响。 我们也分享了自己的移民经历，以及这些微妙情绪是如何在我们的日常情境和系统结构中产生的。 "Minor Feelings" is a book by Korean-American poet and writer Cathy Park Hong that explores the fluid identity, emotions, and experiences of Asian Americans through memoir, cultural criticism, and historical review. As an "East Asian daughter" and a "minority writer," Hong keenly perceives a range of everyday feelings of shame, anger, and self-doubt. In the highly racialized society of America, Asians are often cast as the "model minority," with their diligence and success used as tools to uphold the status quo of mainstream society. However, when they experience racial discrimination, this narrative often stifles Asian Americans' expressions. These "minor feelings" that arise from marginalization conflict with the mainstream American narratives about race and, like the Asian American community, are often overlooked or misunderstood in the black-and-white racial discourse. Recently translated into Chinese and published in China, we took this opportunity to invite our good friend, Duke University professor Eileen Chow, to discuss racial consciousness, the model minority myth, and the impact of historical events on personal and collective identity. We also shared our own immigration experiences and how these subtle feelings arise in our everyday situations. 【时间轴 The When】 00:29 《少数派的感受》:一本探讨亚裔美国人身份和经历的重要著作 02:50 解析“微妙情绪“:少数族裔在美国的日常挣扎 08:06 一代移民与二代移民的经历对比 13:40 亚裔美国人身份认同的复杂性 20:20 大学里的亚裔学生组织:寻找归属感 31:03 Eileen和小蓝在职场中的微妙种族歧视经历 45:14 亚裔内部的代际矛盾:政治立场的分歧 52:23 共同体意识的形成与挑战 01:17:22 多元文化经历作为一种“超能力” 01:24:39 如何利用自己的特权推动社会进步 00:29 “Minor Feelings”: A crucial book exploring Asian American identity and experiences 02:50 Analyzing “minor feelings”: Daily struggles of minorities in America 08:06 Comparing first-generation and second-generation immigrant experiences 13:40 The complexity of the Asian American identity 20:20 Asian student organizations in college: Searching for belonging 31:03 Eileen and Xiaolan's experience with subtle racial discrimination in the workplace 45:14 Generational conflicts and political stance divergences within Asian communities 52:23 Forming a coalition and a collective consciousness 01:17:22 Multicultural experiences as a “superpower” 01:24:39 Reflecting on how to use privilege to drive social progress 【拓展链接 The Links】 登上《时代》杂志封面的“东亚女儿” - 澎湃新闻 亚裔美国人，一个美丽但充满缺陷的虚构故事 Letter to My Child: Cathy Park Hong on the Peculiar Rhythms of Life During Quarantine 【疲惫红书 CyberRed】 除了播客以外，疲惫娇娃的几个女的在小红书上开了官方账号，我们会不定期发布【疲惫在读】、【疲惫在看】、【疲惫旅行】、【疲惫Vlog】等等更加轻盈、好玩、实验性质的内容。如果你想知道除了播客以外我们在关注什么，快来小红书评论区和我们互动。 Apart from the podcast, we have set up an official account on Xiaohongshu.

As the daughter of Korean immigrants, Cathy Park Hong found writing poetry to be freeing -- an empowering way of escaping the invisibility of Asian American identity. Then, as a professional poet, it became clear that the literary world expected Hong's identity to be both a part of, and a limitation to, her work. This cognitive dissonance is one of the “Minor Feelings” addressed in her book of essays of that name. Cathy Park Hong joins us in front of an audience of students at Portland's Leodis V. McDaniel High School.

The Vulgar Geniuses and I share our thoughts on Cathy Park Hong's book, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning, originally posted on their podcast, "The Vulgar Geniuses Book Club Podcast." We discuss cross-racial solidarity and race relations with Hong's mention of Malcolm X and Richard Pryor, and we explore Hong's commentary on the Asian immigrant experience. I emphasize a running theme of how racism, capitalism, and militarism were spread with imperialism. https://www.vulgargeniuses.com/ 

“Asian Americans inhabit a purgatorial status: neither white enough nor black enough, unmentioned in most conversations about racial identity," writes Cathy Park Hong in her award-winning book, Minor Feelings. In this courageous and vulnerable conversation recorded during Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, Barrington mothers and community leaders Erin Chan Ding and Crystal Pepper sit down with hosts Zina Jacque and Jessica Green to share their experiences navigating pride in identity, the pain of discrimination, questions of visibility & invisibility, and the power of representation to create a more inclusive and equitable future for their children. Resources:Asian Pacific American Heritage Month (Library of Congress)Asian Americans (PBS)The Making of Asian America: A History by Erika LeeMinor Feelings by Cathy Park HongHow to Be An Anti-Racist by Dr. Ibram X.

Please join Dean Elizabeth Kronk Warner for her monthly dean's book review. The book to be reviewed will be, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning by Cathy Park Hong, the book was selected in celebration of May being Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. Poet and essayist Cathy Park Hong fearlessly and provocatively blends memoir, cultural criticism, and history to expose fresh truths about racialized consciousness in America. Part memoir and part cultural criticism, this collection is vulnerable, humorous, and provocative—and its relentless and riveting pursuit of vital questions around family and friendship, art and politics, identity and individuality, will change the way you think about our world. Binding these essays together is Hong's theory of “minor feelings.” As the daughter of Korean immigrants, Cathy Park Hong grew up steeped in shame, suspicion, and melancholy. She would later understand that these “minor feelings” occur when American optimism contradicts your own reality—when you believe the lies you're told about your own racial identity. Minor feelings are not small, they're dissonant—and in their tension Hong finds the key to the questions that haunt her. With sly humor and a poet's searching mind, Hong uses her own story as a portal into a deeper examination of racial consciousness in America today. This intimate and devastating book traces her relationship to the English language, to shame and depression, to poetry and female friendship. A radically honest work of art, Minor Feelings forms a portrait of one Asian American psyche—and of a writer's search to both uncover and speak the truth.

It's AAPI heritage month in the US and with the #stopAAPIhate campaign underway, I wanted to share what I've learned about the Asian American community in the US. In this episode, I share some of my key takeaways from the book, "Minor Feelings," a collection of very powerful essays by writer and poet Cathy Park Hong. I also discuss "Oppression Olympics" and allyship. Feel free to DM to correct me if I said anything incorrect in this episode. I'm learning and growing every day!

Key Points From This Episode: - Get to know today's guest, Evan You. - Hear what Evan’s other project, Vite, is all about and the various features it has. - The biggest change with Vite 2 is that it is now framework agnostic. - What inspired the change to make Vite 2 more framework agnostic and the benefits of the shift. - The difference between working on Vue and building a new framework-agnostic build tool. - Balancing high configurability and being overly opinionated; Vite sits somewhere in between. - How Evan keeps his finger on the pulse of other frameworks and how he's changed Vue accordingly. - Insights into Vite's new plugin system and what inspired it. - The decision-making behind drawing inspiration from Rollup's plugin. - Evan’s thoughts about Vite and Rollup plugins and what this means in the context of Vue. - Some of the ideas Evan hopes to bring back to Vue after working on Vite. - Challenges come with wide adoption, but Evan is still grateful for the active community and what they are creating. - Changes that have happened with VitePress; Evan's experience. - The current VuePress landscape and why Evan does not want VitePress to replace it. - Plans to make Vite the default way of doing things on Vue CLI; Evan weighs in. - The challenge Evan has when switching between Vue and Vite. - What Vite's development process looked like; Evan had to learn lots along the way! - When you are working on something new, with not much precedent, it is never going to be a straightforward process - You have to try to put yourself in other developers’ shoes to understand the range of issues that exist. - Plans for a Vite RFC process and what is in the pipeline on that front. - The pre-bundling changes that have happened with Vite 2 have contributed to better speed. - Deciding what to bundle: insights into Evan's thinking. - Asking the controversial question: when is Vite 2 going to be released? - Evan's thoughts on using only Composition AI and not Vuex. - Music Evan listens to while coding and where to find him online. - Alex's pick for the week: Fruity Pebbles Crisps, both delicious and horrifying! - Evan's pick for the week: Curse of the Dead Gods and Hades. - Tessa's pick for the week: So You Want to Talk About Race, Birdy the Mighty Recode, and her electronic soap dispenser. - Following up from previous picks we have talked about. Tweetables: - “The biggest change with Vite 2 is that it's now framework agnostic, so it's not just Vue specific, it works equally well for most of the other frameworks people want to use.” — @youyuxi [0:02:56] - “With Vite, because it's a new thing, I can be as opinionated as I want. it's a new area of exploration, where I’m not confined to the existing decisions we've made.” — @youyuxi [0:08:21] - “Compared to Vue, the workload on Vite is still somewhat OK. If we build up more community members to help triage the issues, can contribute PRs, and maybe even build up some maintainers to handle the daily patch releases, that would be a good place for me, so that I can just overlook the higher-level decisions and only tune into specific decisions when I need to.” — @youyuxi [0:40:18] - “This whole process is a constant discovering new ideas, trying it out, realizing it doesn't work, and then trying something else. it's never going to be a straight-line process.” — @youyuxi [0:44:03] Resources mentioned: - Evan You (https://evanyou.me/) - Evan You on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/evanyou) - Evan You on GitHub (https://github.com/yyx990803) - Evan You on Twitter (https://twitter.com/youyuxi?ref_src=twsrc%255Egoogle%257Ctwcamp%255Eserp%257Ctwgr%255Eauthor) - Ionic Vue (https://ionicframework.com/docs/vue/overview) - Jason Miller (https://www.linkedin.com/in/developit) - webpack (https://webpack.js.org/) - VuePress (https://vuepress.vuejs.org/) - Vue CLI (https://cli.vuejs.org/) - ALGTR (https://www.instagram.com/lexieliu_/?hl=en) - New Fruity Pebbles Crisps (https://www.simplemost.com/new-fruity-pebbles-crisps-are-big-potato-chips/) - Curse of the Dead Gods (https://www.focus-home.com/games/curse-of-the-dead-gods) - Hades (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1145360/Hades/) - So You Want to Talk About Race (https://bookshop.org/books/so-you-want-to-talk-about-race/9781580058827) - Minor Feelings (https://bookshop.org/books/minor-feelings-an-asian-american-reckoning/9781984820365) - Tetsuwan Birdy Decode (https://myanimelist.net/anime/3974/Tetsuwan_Birdy_Decode) - Panel de Pon (https://panepon.fandom.com/wiki/Panel_de_Pon_(SFC)) - SoSplush (https://www.etsy.com/shop/SoSplush) - Enjoy the Vue on Twitter (https://twitter.com/enjoythevuecast?lang=en) - Enjoy the Vue (https://enjoythevue.io/) Special Guest: Evan You.

In this bonus episode, the One World team shares a special excerpt from the audiobook of Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning, by Cathy Park Hong. This showcases the surprising way Cathy arrived at her theory of minor feelings for minorities—via the profane genius of Richard Pryor's stand-up comedy—and the way that comedy allows us to question, mock, and defang (even if only for a moment) casual, everyday discrimination. What happens when we speak up about our discomfort? What happens when we refuse to play along and accept someone else's version of our reality? We hope hearing Cathy's process will inspire you into ideas and action of your own.

“Minor Feelings” is a collection of essays described as honest, funny, and provocative. A look at poet and essayist Cathy Park Hong's cultural observations involving everything from racial identity to art and family.

(S3, EP 3) Cathy Park Hong joined me for this week's episode of the podcast. Cathy is a Korean-American poet, writer, and professor at Rutgers-Newark University. Cathy recently released her critically acclaimed essay book, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning this past Spring. In discussing her latest book, Cathy shared her process in writing Minor Feelings, and on the complicated layers of the Asian-American identity in her essays. Her book segued into the current anti-Asian racism during Covid-19 which she also wrote an op-ed for the NY-Times called "The Slur I Never Expected To Hear in 2020". She talked about the challenging issues confronting anti-Black racism in the API community in the wake of George Floyd's murder, and reflected on the differences between her experience with the LA Riot and the current protest movements.

In this episode, I talk to Professor Jonghyun Lee about niceness and harmony in the context of Korea and Korean Americans, and how too much of it it can lead to some unsavoury physical symptoms - a syndrome called Hwa-byung, or 'fire illness.' You can read the full newsletter with this episode at Minor Feelings dot substack dot com. Music by Ketsa and Cambo.

In the second episode of Minor Feelings, we spoke to New York Democrat politician Lindsey Boylan. Boylan ran for Congress in the NY Democratic primary in June 2020 from the 10th district. She's been particularly frank about her tumultuous and difficult childhood, her ability and foresight to seek therapy early on, and dealing with postpartum depression after the birth of her first child. She was previously Deputy Secretary of Economic Development to Governor Andrew Cuomo, and we talk about the discourse around mental illness in political spheres, and what it does to your mental health to project everlasting perfection as a politician.

In the first episode of Minor Feelings, we explore trauma in a world of advisories, orders, and guidelines in the time of COVID-19. Investigative reporter Rachel Dissell joins the podcast to talk about how people cope, move forward and make sense of the new world unraveling around them. This episode was produced by Divya Karthikeyan, responses edited for clarity by Febin Mathew, and music by Blue Dot Sessions.

One surefire way to lift yourself out of the shelter-in-place doldrums is to engage with someone whose enthusiasm for life and literature is more infectious than any coronavirus. Wayne Koestenbaum joins Kate, Eric, and Daya to discuss his new collection of essays Figure it Out; what ensues is a conversation with exuberant inspirations at every turn. Share this one with your friends, it will renew their faith in living the literary life. Also, Cathy Park Hong, author of Minor Feelings, returns to recommend two foreboding works of recent literature (as if to counterbalance Wayne's optimism): C Pam Zhang's novel How Much of These Hills is Gold; and Joyelle McSweeney's new book of poetry Toxicon and Ariadne.

Writer, editor, and poet Cathy Park Hong joins Medaya Ocher for a dialogue about her new book Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning, which is a blend of memoir, history, and cultural criticism that investigates what it means to live as an Asian American women and artist in America. Cathy and Daya learn that they shared some quirky experiences in their youth: wearing inappropriate t-shirts and how they struggled to conquer the english language. Cathy also explains her resonant eponymous concept, "Minor Feelings," which is introduced in an essay on Richard Pryor's hilarious/tortured/sublime "Live in Concert." Also, Samantha Irby returns to give an advance recommendation for Raven Leilani's novel Luster, which is scheduled for release this summer.
