Episode Description: Hello, world! We're back a little later this week with another episode, where we take some time to discuss race and identity in the U.S. as it's depicted in Ken Liu's short story Paper Menagerie.When we recorded this episode a few weeks ago, we had no idea how relevant it would be at the time of publishing it. The topic of racism in the United States was relevant then, and it is relevant now. As a podcast team, we are here to listen and to educate ourselves, as well as share resources and the things we've learned with others. The MLK quote that we mentioned within the episode and wanted to share with you is "darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." Here is just one of the many resources that you can use to stay informed on different ways to help and support the Black Lives Matter movement: www.blacklivesmatters.carrd.co
