with Sharon Lee Thony & Raman Sehgal
Matt Story | 9/6/2020
Sharon Lee Thony & Raman Sehgal, co-hosts of Modern Minority podcast, grew up with opposite experiences as it relates to the make up of their surrounding culture. However, they both share experiences in this episode of feeling like you are in a foreign land. We also dive into a parents corner discussion where we explore our different approaches to raising multi-racial children and how we each balance exposing them to the world. We also discuss the importance of finding ways to scale empathy.
Also - After you listen to this episode, make sure you listen to the crossover episode on Modern Minorities where Sharon & Raman dive into my story and we debate the meaning behind "Model Minority".
