I talk about this AAPI identity development theory which was written by Dr. Jean Kim in 1981, while studying 3rd generation (sansei) Japanese American women. I share about my own experiences in the theory stages. I also listened to Dr. Jenny Wang's interview with Dr. Jean Kim on her live instagram call, where Kim talks about her experiences.
