This week on "I've Been Meaning To Listen To That", we kick off AAPI month by discussing Disney's 1998 masterpiece MULAN with special guest Michael Chau! Plus, Andrew, Harper, Stenley, & Michael discuss Mulan's transgressive views on gender roles and gender performance, how patriarchy hurts and alienates everyone, how whitewashing can create a profound negative impact on Asian youth, how Ming-Na Wen & BD Wong exemplified Asian American representation in the 90s and 2000s, how Mushu was almost played by Joe Pesci instead of Eddie Murphy, how Moulin Rouge pretty much copies a scene from Mulan beat for beat, and so much more!
