The pandemic and the concomitant spike in anti-AAP

The pandemic and the concomitant spike in anti-AAPI hate and violence inspired writer/producer Ronald W. Wong and director Tony Shyu to transform their behind-the-scenes documentary of CA State Treasurer John Chiang's campaign for governor into deeper look at America's shameful history of scapegoating Asians and AAPIs. In this interview, Ron states why he won't support AAPI candidates like Andrew Yang, and the astounding work that he and his foundation have done to mentor and launch a growing number of influential AAPI politicians. https://asianamericapodcast.com/2022/11/ep-400-ronald-w-wong-on-the-race-epidemic-documentary/

https://asianamericapodcast.com/2022/11/ep-399-anu-bhatt-on-reclaiming-agency/ @iamanubhatt Anu Bhatt had spent ten years in Chicago working as an actor when she felt that it was time to move home to San Diego to rediscover what she loved about her craft. As it turned out, a significant outcome of this was reclaiming her sense of agency. During the pandemic, Anu wrote and starred in "Autocorrect," a short film that speaks directly to the act of having agency, i.e., her insistence that her white director correctly pronounce her South Asian name. This not only inspired us to explore further why exercising agency is an important component of mental health, but it also subsequently motivated me to reclaim agency over a portion of my own life.

US Mint chose early Hollywood icon Anna May Wong to be the first American of Asian ancestry to grace American currency. But do you know anything about her? Hollywood historian @arthurdongfilm unpacks her story in this episode. She was clearly determined to exercise agency over her long career as an actor, even though Hollywood was resistant then--and even today--to telling stories and offering roles that go beyond stereotypes of AAPIs.
