Mixed Asian Day: Reflections with Alex Chester-Iwata & Mane

On this episode of Militantly Mixed, Alex Chester-Iwata from Mixed Asian Day returns for a heartfelt post-event conversation with Mane.

We had a wonderful, cup-filling weekend in San Francisco at the Koho Creative Hub in Japantown (Nihon Machi) celebrating Mixed-Asian identity. Together, we reflect on how the event unfolded, the community connections that were built, and our hopes for next year. Above all, this episode centers on the importance of community—why it matters, how it sustains us, and why events like Mixed Asian Day are essential spaces for Mixed folks.
