Welcome to the Part One of our Civil Rights Episode of Hearabouts: Asian American Midwest Radio! Hearabouts is produced by WFHB and Indiana University’s Asian Culture Center. We ask critical questions about identity, culture, community and shared assumptions.

On today’s episode, we have Carwina Weng, Indiana University’s Maurer School of Law Professor, where she teaches her Disability Law Clinic course; she graduated from Yale University and her Juris Doctor at New York University. Weng speaks about her current and past experiences in activism in addition to current social issues like poverty, domestic abuse, and the model minority stereotype.
