White people asking if you are visiting (or from) North Korea is akin to asking a White person if they are visiting Nazis in Germany. Not so cute anymore when put in that perspective, right? And don’t get us started on orientalism.
Martin and Rich Lee are second-generation Korean American brothers. Martin is a retired elementary school teacher and the illustrator of the strip. Rich is a professor of psychology in Asian American studies at the University of Minnesota and writes the content.
