DEBATE ITSINDAHG VS. DAMIAN HOO: White Privilege, Passport Bros & Asian Women Marrying White Men

It's obvious that white privilege exists, but does it apply in every & all situations? Would you believe it if we told you it's not always that nice to be a white person in Asia? In this episode, Indah & Damian discuss the realities & nuances of white privilege in Asia, as well as a multitude of other phenomena related to the issue such as passport bros, "bule hunters," Asian women marrying white men to escape poverty, white entitlement encouraged by a society that still upholds white superiority, and more. Our heaviest apology to both Damian and all of our viewers and listeners for the audio and camera tech issues we experienced in this episode, unfortunately our studio microphones were not working at that time, and we also had a faulty camera for Damian.
