I’m so glad I could come through and share about what the Asian American community has been dealing with not just this past year but for decades. To anyone watching, if you’re interested in learning more on your own, search Chinese Exclusion Act, Japanese Internment Camps, Vincent Chin. Those are good places to start. And the best thing y’all can do is help us amplify the messages and info, so please share! Anti-Asian hate is real and we need as much support and allyship as possible. Thank you Grayson and Ethan and the whole team for opening up to Anna and myself! Peace and blessings all! -Philip
Thank you guys for sharing knowledge and your experiences with us. Speaking openly about anti-Asian is the way to wake up mentalities 🙌🏻❤️
Especially the minority of Pakistani, Bengali people etc. We need to stand up to people and finish racism; no matter who it’s targeted at.
Virtue signaling at its finest.
Thank you for having us!
It was a great conversation! Well done to all of you for raising awareness and being absolutely amazing!
This is a conversation that HAD to be heard. You were all amazing and very respectful towards each other and the topic at hand. Thank you for doing it!!!
Anna do you have a podcast?
I’m so into Anna fever right now 😂 , I love you Annaaaaaaa you are so smart much love and respect!
i love how they are so educated and are not ashamed to bring awareness, as a filipino this means alot to me
Same! I'm Filipino too!
Ayy I’m filipino

I’m so amazed by the development Ethan and Grayson went through, how their priorities and interests shifted. As someone who grew up with them, I feel like I am making the same changes as them.
i totally agree.. it was hard to see them unhappy and unsure what they wanted for their career but i’m so proud of them for taking this route.
And this is exactly why the Dolan Twins are the best! They are very responsible and they know what they are talking about. They are both so educated .
Thank you from an American born Asian. Appreciate you talking about this topic.
same. This helped me a lot!! i’m a american - iranian and this made me have hope for the twins and other people like them.
This also made me happy. I'm also Asian American: I'm Filipina
wow i’m so happy you guys did a podcast talking about asian hate..... it’s a huge thing that needs to be resolved. everyone should be treated fairly with love and equality! 🤍
Just a suggestion guys, ive seen that you suddenly jump to the podcast without introducing the guest, a quick introduction of who they are and what they do like "Im with x person , Ceo/TH-cam/Whatever" would be nice and it gives more importance to the guest . Ive been a little lost lately with your guests, specially in the car episode because ive never seen those guys before.
By the way, Love Anna!! loved this episode.
You guys might be one of the realest people on the Internet and i'm really grateful for the message you're sending out especially to young people. You're great! Stay true to youselves guys.
Ethan, Grayson if you ever read this I just want to say thank you for taking the time to really educate and go deep in this topic. As an Asian American and watching you guys since 2014, basically growing up watching you, this means a lot, thank you so much for raising awareness!
I stopped paying attention to my social studies class to watch this. Love you both never stop being you ❤️
Being of AAPI descent, I am so honored and grateful that I saw this podcast today. I really learned a lot that I didn't know. I am also of Black descent and didn't realize the tension among our communities. I was raised in a predominately Caucasian area and had trouble understanding and identifying with other peers growing up. Being of 9 nationalities, well....you can say I have a lot to think about right now and for my entire life. I am always learning every day and will always be open minded and consciously listen to anyone willing to share their knowledge and experiences with me. My struggles have made me stronger today, sometimes jaded, but that's the humanity in me. However, I choose to help others and be part of the system that wants to make a change, to make it right. I could go on forever. This is one of my fav podcast guys because I learned something and because I could relate. Thank you for posting this. I look forward to many more. Take care and love you always! Mahalo :) Oh! Btw....I'm going to visit that Phil's cafe when I come home in couple weeks...looking forward to that!
So dope to see this, especially as a second gen Korean American. I don’t know ya’ll, but I came here from Phils’ instagram story. I will say that I just developed a lot of respect for you two just for giving Phil and Anna the spotlight to share their own experiences as Asian Americans. And also for being open-minded and being willing to educate yourselves on issues like this.
Idc what the haters say - seeing you use your platform to make space for less-heard voices is one more beautiful reason why I love and respect you two. Period.
Being a South Asian teenager myself, this video is and always will be my number #1🔥
Hey guys, you're making a huge and wonderful change on this earth! Much needed ❤️
I appreciate the fact that when there is a problem in the world they speak on it and don’t just ignore it 👏🤝
performative tho
@Powerful Oprah the sad reality is that a lot of influencers, including the dolan twins, only choose to speak up about an important issue when people force them to or when they need to maintain a good reputation; that’s the performative part. many of their fans were calling them out for not speaking about important issues going on in the world, and suddenly when their views dropped they decided to speak out on something. i do appreciate them for talking about asian hate tho
I completely agree with what Grayson said here: 1:12:41-1:12:48. "If you truly believe in equality, you don't just ... think everyone's equal ... you weaponize your privilege that you have to make sure everyone's equal." ~Grayson Dolan, 2021.
Watching this DWTDT #23 was another eye-opening experience that will further serve to awaken in us a sense of urgency that this hate among people must not destroy or even delay our quest for peace. And, as the song goes: "Let there be PEACE on Earth, and let it begin with ME." Each of us is responsible for our part in making this happen. Thank you Dolan Twins for promoting love and positivity. We love you both so very much, and blessings to each of you.
as a filipina girl , whenever i go out i feel scared that i will get yelled at or anything so im happy they are talking about this. im only 18 minutes in but Grayson and Ethan are such good listeners
I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. Stay safe 💙
@@Lily-bw4nu 💙💙💙💙
You Asians are so beautiful, don't allow anyone to take y'all crown. Y'all have something special that others are jealous about. 💙💙💙
That's why Black Cinderella with the Asian Prince Charming movie is my favorite Cinderella movie version
No offense but...... no💀💀💀
This. Seeing that diversity represented was eye-opening. And everyone was so talented in the film!
@@ziontomlin4172 kk❤️
Mine too
@@alyssawaltz9316 "HER favorite", her opinion.
I am listening to the podcast right now. This dialogue is much needed right now. There is a LOT of American history left out of textbooks. Anna said something just now that should resonate with everyone: what if I am racist? What beliefs or impressions do I have that border on discrimination? I was raised in middle Georgia in the 60’s and 70’s. Until I was in my mid teens, I didn’t realize so much of what I heard and witnessed was wrong. And I have worked hard to not be that kind of person anymore. The people in the generation that Grayson and Ethan represent are the change that this world needs, that this country needs. Like both Anna and Philip said, change will be incremental, we won’t see broad strokes overnight. I pray that within five years we can at least see some visible change.
you're awesome kelly!! it's great you consciously realized certain things and are still striving to learn more. the world needs more people like you
they've literally wanted these moustache's since they were like 15. I'm in love.
I LOVE how the podcast has become a place for me to educate myself. However, the last few guest I have not known and it’s so hard to grasp these lessons without having an introduction on the guest. Please please have them introduce themselves and who they are.
also, thank you for using the platform to spread the awareness about this issue. i know i’m stanning the right people 🤍
COME BACK to TH-cam PLEAAAAAASE
i am not asian so i cannot speak for the asian community but thank you so much for speaking up about this!! you guys have grown so much and i love seeing the support you guys have for these communities ❤️
I love them so much bro, they're my entire childhood♡
They’re ****
@@tatyana5741 Thank you! I hate that I made that mistake oml😭✋🏼
I love how they took their time out of their day to talk about something this serious. I’m so proud of them for actually coming forward to speak on it. Thank you guys so much 🤍🤍 really shows how much you guys care about everyone
Thank you for letting your platform to bring awarness to those who are clueless of what's happening within the Asian community 💙
I’m so happy that the twins found what they love to do! I’m so amazed by their growth and this episode and the rest are so amazing and I loved it and I love the twins! I learned so much and I will continue to learn more!
Already by the tittle I applause them and I feel proud of them to speak about this topic and this current situation 🙌🏻❤️
Right they speak out instead of just ignoring it
Right that’s why I Love them 😍
I'm happy that Ethan and Grayson are talking about Anti-Asian Hate with with Anna Akana and Philip Wang. 🔥❣️
Fantastic episode! My eyes were opened, certainly. Thank you
Thank you to Phillip and Anna for educating all of us, so well said.
I'm so thankful we get to see you guys every week still! Thank you guys for talking about these important topics. It's so important.
Also, show more of Ava!!! shes so cute!!!
always speaking and raising their voices on important topics such as this one. 👏 you guys are the best i love you both ♥️
This has to be my favorite podcast so far.
This podcast was very eye opening and I learned so much. Me as a Hispanic/Latino American I well NEVER exactly understand the struggles Asians go through in this world and now story’s abt this are slowly coming out and hopefully later in life we know the whole story’s so we can know what’s going on and how help or stop it from getting worse/bigger. Reading some comments I noticed different states are starting to teach kids in school abt the Japanese American during WWII. I’m in middle school and they teaching me this in ELA and Social Studies which is a good step
You guys are my favorite men in the world! ❤️

Ok. This is surreal!! This morning I left a comment on the previous podcast requesting to have Anna Akana as a guest! And I come home from work AND THEY DID!!!
I think it is really interesting for a lot of people to listen to all of you exchange ideas. Thank you! You just made my day.
This podcast gave me chills.
It's so sad what hatred is in this world. Why people have to hurt other people, I will never understand. Sometimes it makes me feel ashamed to be human.
Thank you both for giving attention to the problems in this world and listening to others.
Have a wonderful weekend ^-^
Thank you so much for this! I’m very glad that this was shared! I’m a Sikh, and it really touched me that Philip brought up the Sikh Community even if it was a very small part it really meant a lot and it’s a Sikh Temple or a Sikh Gurdwara what you were trying to say. There’s so many things out there people don’t know about I’m an Asian-American and there’s always been something going on in the Asian community, whether it’s for Japanese, Chinese, or Indian and there’s many many more, thank you for bringing awareness!
This is so great !, you guys willing to address the issues happening in this world and listening to the people going through it is amazing !, thank u for trying to educate us and yaself 💗.
I was in a bad mood yesterday and made some unnecessary comments on this episode. (Which I have deleted.) I should have re-watched one of their funny episodes like, "Grayson Sent the Most Embarrassing Text" and saved this one for a better time. (I just needed something light and humorous yesterday.) I am 100% against hate and racism against Asians, or any racial, or ethnic group. Every day I pray for Healing of the deep divisions in the US. I appreciate how the guests reached out with gentleness and explained their perspective.
I would be very interested to hear Anna's dad tell his story and share his perspective as well. I think if we remember we are all flawed humans, who have blind spots, and reach out to each other in forgiveness, we can make real progress. Along these lines, I would also be very interested to hear Ethan and Grayson's grandparents, great aunts & uncles... I'm sure that generation saw anti-Italian bias (which of course does not show on their skin, like race does.) Their grandparent's generation saw the civil rights movement with Martin Luther King Jr. in real time. No generation leaves a perfect legacy -- far from it. That said, I think Sean and Lisa Dolan must have been raised to be accepting and non-racist people. It's very obvious they, in turn, raised E and Gray to be very good people. I understand the twins wanting to get a message through to their older relatives. I think listening to their experiences and views first will open doors and tear down defensive walls.
Humans are very tribal by nature. We must all work to find common ground and uniting principals in order to overcome fear and distrust of the "other." I applaud Ethan and Grayson for their openness and seeking this common ground.
I agree with everything you said thank you, and i understand your comments yesterday considering you were in a bad mood, it's okay we all have those days :)
@@lindalynn4817 Thank you so much for your understanding. :)
Do you ever reach a point with news, etc. where you just can't handle hearing anything more about problems/bad things in the world? At my age, I should know when to take a break from consuming that type of media, when I'm in that space. I so look forward to Deeper, I didn't listen to my inner voice saying, "maybe you should listen to this one at a different time." Replies to my comments eventually made me realize I shouldn't have made them. Today I have a whole new perspective!
@@oldguy1610 it’s really cool that you owned up to that, not many people are decent enough to :) glad to see that you had a change of perspective with time and I wish you a good day!
I saw your other posts & I did find it weird you weaponizing what u THOUGHT MLK jr would & would not agree w/ ( in regards to critical race theory ) as weird. As none of that was mentioned in this podcast but I’m sure MLK jr would want history to be taught fully ( including critical race theory, which I hope u actually looked up before commenting b/c I did) . The user “neon smiley” is upset b:c a bunch of us called her out on her bigoted comments towards the Asian community in this vid. In which she essentially said that the Asian community & other BIPOC play victim & denied that these crimes even exist. Which is false. So she’s here looking for validation from u! It has nothing to do with political parties , rather acknowledging injustices against marginalized groups like they did in this vid. Godspeed!
@@aidk23 if u see her other comments she’s upset that people called her racist b/c she refuses to acknowledge Asian hate crimes & BIPOC hate crimes as real. She thinks they’re just playing victim & it’s all liberals when in fact these crimes r reported. Mind u neon smiley is a 37 yr old woman Christian conservative. Not shocked! But she’s incredibly tone deaf
This was sooo enlightening and important! I love the direction that you're going in with the POD, guys. Good stuff.
This was an excellent episode and such a valuable contribution to education and conversation. Keep it up guys. You are making such a great use of your celebrity and platform.
I’m waiting for Thursday just for your episode
I love how you give other people and important matters the platform to share their knowledge ❤️
They are the reason why I love my generation ♥️
This is proof of younger generations making changes in society. Thanks for the support Dolan Twins
I love how there so educated about this situation and there raising awareness🥺💓
This is such an important topic, and the guests are so well-educated! :)
I love you Ethan and Grayson❤️❤️❤️❤️
respect! for educating yourselves
This is actually really important thank you guys for speaking about such a thing . I love you so much 💓
Thank you for discussing this. It matters to talk and take things one step at a time. Life can be overwhelming but we have to talk about these things.
Wow. So proud of these guys! They have their priorities in place. Will always be a supporter no matter what❤️
The twins surprise me every time and this being their only TH-cam channel I love it and value it way more than before. Thank you for what you do Ethan and Grayson!
E and Gray, Just a thought for possible future episodes of Deeper, since there doesn't seem to be a better place to leave it. Many of your episodes have been very inspiring, in particular I'm thinking of Marsai Martin and Laurie Hernandez. It's so uplifting to hear how people have overcome the odds and accomplished great things. There's so much negativity throughout media today. You guys would be the perfect hosts to bring us stories of people who've overcome huge obstacles in all areas of life. You two are always so supportive and positive about things other people are accomplishing. Sorry, I don't have any great ideas as to how you would find these people and their stories -- maybe some of the viewers/listeners could help? God bless you!
the collab and conversation we all needed!!!
Wow I just clicked so fast... my mom is Filipino and I have to admit, in our small Southern California town, there have been a few times I’ve been fearful out walking with her these past few months...
thank you for speaking up about this!!
This was a great episode, I love how it’s teaching people about racism that other people have delt with
I Love crazy Stupid Love movie
Appreciate you guys talking about this topic, what Anna and Philip had to say is important
Thank you guys so much for speaking about this on your podcast. I don’t know if it’s just me, but I haven’t seen a ton of creators speaking out against this, so it means a lot. The Asian community appreciates you.
thank you all for speaking about this important topic
A comprehensive discussion about Asian community!
thank you for using your platform
I do appreciate this very much
love you guys so much!!!! i will always support you two 🧡
i love them so much, if there is a problem in the world they educate themselves and try to educate others and spread awareness about the certain situation.
Humans really need to start treat humans as humans
Thank you for speaking about these topics 💕
I don't understand how people dislike content like this, but being from the Asian community I would just like to say, we appreciate it. Thank you
Japanese American here thank you 🤝
The colab we didn’t know we needed
The part about the interment camps is so true :(
I’ve heard so many people in college talking about how they never heard of it before...
RESPEKT!
!!!
I'm new to these podcast and this is my first pod that I'm watching and I'm loving it keep it up guys
Whats really the worst part of this, is that most of the minorities are against each other because of what we learn growing up. It's put a divide in the groups which, evidently, need to work together to overcome this in the future generations. This episode is super relatable and informative... literally love it!!
This was a really great episode learned so much, thank you
I didn’t actually know anything about race towards asian people until now it’s honestly not talked about and I had no idea what catcalling was I had to goggle it
I love you two so much!
Oh
Wholesome-est content right here.
Thank you for using the podcast to spread awareness and talking about asian hate. I love to see the interest you have on this issue and how educate you are and how you try to share with us.
Seating back and thinking about Mulan from Disney, how such a small thing to me can actually means a lot to all asian community, asian children who need much more than just one reference.
I’m glad you are fearless and don’t feel ashamed to talk.
“If you truly believe in equality, you just don’t think everyone is equal, you weaponize your privilege that you have to make sure everyone is equal”
Thank you Anna and Phillip for sharing knowledge and your experiences with us. Speaking openly about anti-Asian is the way to wake up mentalities 🙌🏻❤️
7:17 i am so disguted that they allowed that scene to be on camera, i feel so bad for her
I learnt sooo much from this episode
Learned so much! Thank you guys for this conversation.
When you have Covid and have been binge watching there podcast and old videos
i hope you feel better soon! sending hugs💞
@@ewgoaway5035 awww omg thanks 😊
Actually makes me sad they stop there other yt channel :((
WE STAN EDUCATED PEOPLE
Thank you so much for this episode, I learned a lot more than I'd like to admit.
I never usually comment but wow. Thank you so much for this, this means so much.
by far one of my favorite episodes!
I've been loving the mature content lately because I don't really have anyone in my family who would talk about these things so it is really nice to listen to this and get educated. In general, all the podcasts have educated and informed me about a lot of stuff so I am really thankful for all of these.
Thanks so much for talking about something that has been normalised for too long now. We need to respect all peoples ❤️
Ya it is.
Thank you for doing this it means so much to us asian americans.
ethan’s hair is giving me 2016 vibes omg 😭😭
POV: You didn’t finish watching yet
Awesome informative guests. Great advice - call people out in a kind way if you see someone misrepresenting another human being. Just watched a recent video w/one of Michael Jacksons brothers & I LOVED the hat he had on: "STUDY PEACE". Thanks E & G ~ for trying to make peace in our world.
anna is so articulate, holy- i learned so much every time she spoke.
