This week, Sheela and Nina talk about the power of Asian American literature, the intersections of mind and body in dance, and... how the U.S. exports black culture for soft diplomacy. They also discuss how non-black artists need to take a step back and examine their influences critically--and that casteism has no place in hiphop. Yikes.
