#MeToo movement and Asian men

Has the #MeToo movement made Asian men think about the way they treat women?

Has the #MeToo movement made Asian men think about the way they treat women? Qasa is asking this after Comedian Aziz Ansari spoke for the first time about how he now feels regret and embarrassment at how he made a woman feel during what he thought were consensual sexual acts. He says he has reflected and it's changed the way he treats women. Then Qasa hears from Head of Diversity for the Arts Council England, Abid Hussain, who thinks the industry is still 'treading water' when it comes to diversity and who works in the arts. After that Qasa is joined by Sunday Times best seller, Gregg Hurwitz, to talk about his new book ‘Out of the Dark’. And married couple Bilal and Mima tell us why they started vlogging about their lives and more recently about colourism in the Asian community.
