  • Summary

  • Description:


    In today’s episode, I got to sit down at the multiethnic table with Brennan Takayama. Tune in to hear his story as a monoracial multiethnic man with roots in both San Francisco and Hawai’i. Brennan has much insight into loving the “other,” loving oneself (and thus honoring God’s good creation), and loving the land, along with many other great topics. 



    Shownotes:


    Brennan Takayama is a mixed Asian man of Japanese and Chinese (Cantonese) ancestry. He was born and raised in Hilo, Hawaii where he enjoyed playing with his brothers and cousins on the family farm. His family moved from Hiroshima, Japan in the late-1800s to work on the sugar cane plantations of the Hamakua coast. His Chinese family moved from Canton to Hawaii and then California in 1870, and his mom was born and raised in San Francisco Chinatown. A documentary "Vanishing Chinatown" about his great-grandparents' photo studio has been on the film festival circuit. Two of his favorite TV shows right now are Kim's Convenience and Black-ish.
