Today, Scott and I talk about his journey out of Christian higher education.
Scott Okamoto (he/him) is a 4th generation Japanese American (sansei) writer, musician, and podcaster. He grew up in a conservative evangelical household but found his way out while teaching English at Azusa Pacific University, a conservative evangelical school. He has since dedicated his work to helping people deconstruct and decolonize from that world as a podcaster (Chapel Probation), musician (Axis Mundia Media), and writer, (Asian American Apostate). He currently lives in Pasadena, California.
Find Scott on Substack. His piece "The Irresistible Allure of Whiteness in Deconstruction" is linked here. Chapel Probation and The Horny Chapel are available wherever you get your podcasts. Get your copy of Asian American Apostate wherever you get books!
