36. Growing Up in Cupertino, Transitioning to UC Berkeley, and Distancing From Asian Identity with Sydney Ji (Part 1)

In part 1 of my conversation with Sydney Ji, UC Berkeley ‘17 and an international customer service assistant at the Berkeley International Office, listen to them talk about their experiences grappling with their racial identity and class privilege as they were growing up in Cupertino, CA and transitioning to UC Berkeley.

*CW: Sydney talks about their mental health during their time growing up in a pretty toxic environment and discusses suicide.

Next week, in part 2, Sydney will talk more about their time at Berkeley, invisible disabilities, their work at the international students’ office, and more!
