After eight years, the project of Militantly Mixed is complete. In this final episode, I reflect on how a podcast I originally began during one of the lowest periods of my life became a community, a body of work, and one of the great loves of my life. What started as a project to help get me off the couch grew into eight years of conversations with Mixed cousins around the world and the “archive…

I wanted to share a quick update about Militantly Mixed. Just as I was starting to get back into the swing of things with the show, my precious cat Kreia died the day after I arrived in Seoul, Korea. I am devastated, not only to lose her, but also to not have been home with her when she died. Because of that, I am not in a place right now to finish editing the third interview I still have to edit,…

In this episode, we discuss the inspiration behind…
This week on Militantly Mixed, I’m joined by Noelle Blanco, whom I met at Mixed Asian Day 2025 in San Francisco. Noelle ended up joining our We Are Not a Monolith panel at literally the last possible minute, when she had just stepped off stage from another panel, and we invited her to jump in with us because we loved her whole vibe on the previous panel. With no prep whatsoever and me moderating…
Just a quick un-edited check-in because I am having computer issues.
This week on Militantly Mixed , I am joined by Traci Hobson , a biracial Black and Korean transracial adoptee whom I had the pleasure of meeting at Mixed Asian Day earlier this year. Traci was adopted from Korea and raised in the United States by American parents, navigating not just what it means to be Mixed, but also what it means to be disconnected from her birthplace, language, and culture, in…

Alison returns to share her stunning new novel, The In-between Sky , and we dive into creativity, identity, and what it means to write from a Mixed-race perspective. Talking with Alison felt like catching up with…
Even though Militantly Mixed is still on Mental Health hiatus, I wanted to drop a quick update for my Mixed Cousins about a few important tech transitions because of technical difficulties. First, I recently switched the email domain, and some of you may be getting spam, spoofing, or phishing warnings when you receive emails from me. I’m working on fixing that, but you may need to re-accept access…
In this episode of Militantly Mixed , Sharmane sits down with the creative team behind Disarm , an animated short film that captures the painful yet powerful intersections of identity, grief, and resilience in the wake of anti-Asian violence. Following the 2021 Atlanta spa shootings, Disarm tells the story of a young woman navigating multiple layers of identity when a hate crime unfolds on her…
