I’m excited to announce that I’ll be one of the speakers on a panel discussion next Monday, July 23rd at the Museum of Chinese in the Americas (MoCA). If you’re in the NYC area, I hope you’ll come by!

It’s going to be a great discussion on Asian-American media activism, and they’ve put together a really impressive list of panelists, including the Angry Asian Man himself!

• Andrew Hsiao (WBAI, New Press)
• Albert Lim (Fallout Central)
• Beau Sia (Def Jam Poet)
• Minya Oh aka Miss Info (HOT 97 FM)
• Phil Yu (AngryAsianMan.com)

If Anything is Possible: A Blueprint for Change
WHY SO ANGRY ???

The Asian American community has made valiant efforts to respond to racist views and negligent media portrayals. Is outrage the answer? We’ll bring key people together to speak about their experiences responding to pivotal incidents in the community. We’ll facilitate dialogue that brings about innovative ways to effectively act together.

This roundtable discussion is part of a new MoCA quarterly series, which aims to tackle current and specific topics that impact the Asian American community in a ‘nuts and bolts’ style. Rather than simply elucidating issues, the objective is a proactive discussion aimed at creating a blueprint for change.
