Ep 86 Michelle K. Hanabusa Founder of Uprisers and Co-Founder of Hate Is A Virus

I was pretty stoked to get to sit at the Cool-Asian-Kids table the other day with the founder of the streetwear brand Uprisers Michelle K. Hanabusa and men’s fashion content creator Jeff Yamazaki!  Michelle is doing great things leading a community-minded fashion brand as well as being one of the co-founders of the AAPI community mobilizing group Hate Is A Virus.  She’s a real force in our community, but also one of the nicest people to chat with!

You can find out more about Uprisers on their website weareuprisers.com or @weareuprisers on social media.  Also, go over to Hateisavirus.org to see ways that you can participate in what they’re doing to illuminate and eradicate hate against Asians!  

Thanks to Jeff for introducing me to Michelle and helping me co-host this episode!  Find Jeff’s fun and educational reels @jeffyamazaki on social media.  Always great working with you Jeff!
