Episode 47: Martee Dares to Dance by Harry Shum Jr & Shelby Rabara
We could not be more delighted to kick off Filipino American History Month with Shelby Rabara and Harry Shum Jr talking about their book Martee Dares to Dance. This brilliantly illustrated kids book (by Bianca Austria) about gaining confidence through dance has nods to both their backgrounds, from dance to food, and an aspirational hip-hop lola.
We talk about Shelby’s fond food memories in the Phillipines, Harry’s (soon-to-be) relationship to fishing, and come up with a new tamale restaurant concept. Plus fancifying dumplings, and artichokes as the new metaphor for life.
Catch Harry and Shelby at the Asian Art Museum on Oct 5th for Free First Sunday AND get a copy of Martee Dares to Dance courtesy of the museum. Or order your copy directly from our friends at Gloo Books.
