Synopsis

It’s May! It also happens to be Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month! Do you know how when you were you were young and you said you liked that one song from that 90s boy band ONE TIME but then no one will let you live that down and they think that’s the only kind of music you like? Nothing more? Well... that’s what it be like sometimes for Karen and her Asian identity. Karen and Nicole are celebrating some of film and television’s works from the creators, writers, actors, and filmmakers of Asian/Pacific Islander descent and those that speak on their experiences. With pathfinders like “Crazy Rich Asians”, “Master is None”, “Fresh off the Boat” and “Shoplifters” to discuss, guests Kristina Bustos ( writer, performer) and Lee Hubilla (writer, director, actor, and producer of “Those Who Wander” of Asian American Film Lab’s 72 hr shoot out) join us to discuss the importance of representation, diversity, and the need for more.
