This week I welcome R. Scott Okamato back to the show to discuss his book Asian American Apostate: Losing Religion and Finding Myself at an Evangelical University (https://bookshop.org/a/11130/9781957687131) . We talk about his life as a professor at an evangelical college, the classroom experience, pushing back against Whiteness as an Asian American man, and how he found community on and off campus.
Scott is also the host of the Chapel Probation (https://www.rscottokamoto.com/work) podcast.
