Jen Wang and Diana Nguyen, creators of the blog Disgrasian.com Erin and I are excited to announce the next call in our series of conversations with Asian American leaders and newsmakers. We'll be speaking with Jen Wang and Diana Nguyen of Disgrasian on Tuesday, September 21 at 7 pm PT (10 pm ET -- it's an hour later than our usual calls). If you follow Asian American news and issues, there's a very short list of must-read blogs to visit every day. They include Angry Asian Man, 8 Asians and Slant Eye for the Round Eye, for starters. And there's also Disgrasian, the influential blog created by Diana Nguyen and Jen Wang, two friends in the LA area who cover Asian American pop culture and politics with an edgy, acerbic, funny, smart and smart-ass attitude. Diana and Jen have been featured on NPR, The Associated Press, The Daily Beast, Metro NY's "Best of the Blogs," and Hyphen magazine (a cover story!), and they have spoken at NYU, Yale, Harvard, UCLA, Loyola Marymount, and USC. Diana and Jen are also regular contributors to the Huffington Post and have created a web series for Adult Swim called Hollywood Slant. But their greatest achievement by far has been being named "Race Hustlers" and "Assorted Moonbats" by conservative pundit Michelle Malkin.
