On this episode of Militantly Mixed, I sit down with Rena Heinrich, Lauren Lola, and Ingrid Hu Dahl to talk about their upcoming panel, Our Stories, Our Ink: Mixed Asian Authors in Conversation at Mixed Asian Day 2025. We tease their panel a little bit and dig into the importance of holding space for Mixed Asian voices across generations and geographies.
I also share a bit about my own panel and why I’m so excited to be a part of this year’s event in person.
