Description

With the events in Atlanta drawing greater attention to AAPI violence in America, we decided to sit down for a candid conversation Friday afternoon with friend of the pod Ryan Joe (Raman’s co-host on his other secret podcast). Look, we don’t have all the answers, but we need to start asking the questions.

Sharon Lee Thony and Raman Sehgal are two MODERN MINORITIES - Asian-American industry pros "making it" (?) - even though they never became the doctors their parents wanted them to be. Each week, they are joined by folks of all stripes - entrepreneurs, corporates, athletes, reporters, politicians, entertainers, and more - to uncover how our different cultural backgrounds shape how we uniquely experience the world. MODERN MINORITIES is a collection of conversations about work and life through the lens of race and gender. It is a show where we talk about “the thing” that everyone is thinking about, but nobody is actually talking about it. New episodes drop weekly.
