Hey hey Mary J ✊🏽
We’re back after a hiatus working on personal projects (both of us dabbling in a bit of writing on the forthcoming book, I Refuse To Condemn – edited by the talented Asim Qureshi) with a brand new episode. We’re chuffed to bits to be able to finally sit down (virtually) in this new socially isolated world with our guest Daniel York Loh. We discuss his start in the theatre, writing productions such as The Fu Manchu Complex which challenges the 'Yellow Peril' racist stereotype and talk through early years breaking into the film industry. We have an awesome wide ranging conversation that covers:
- The Hounslow Art Collective and Parv Bancil’s influence on his career
- The term ‘Ethnic Drag’, performing your ethnicity as opposed to acting
- ‘Chinese’ being a problematic term
- Pan Asian Identities
- The Oriental Stereotype and Orientalist white gaze
- Founding BEATS and The ‘Living with the Lams’ controversy
- Stereotypes of the ‘Model Minority’
- Crazy Rich Asians being a significant yet problematic milestone
- The Rep Sweats
- And of course we end with the Question Time Guy
