‘BEEF’ is one of the best shows I’ve seen… ever. But as much as I loved the show, I can't talk about it without addressing David Choe. Video of a 2014 conversation has resurfaced which shows David telling the story of how he forced a Black masseuse to perform sexual acts on him.

The top two shows on Netflix (U.S.) right now star Asian American actors. Guess that means Asians are relatable and (gasp) marketable #VeryAsian #AsianRepresentation #BEEFNetflix #NightAgent

Cast spoke to Mr. Wei Tsay @veryasian.co and shared our views on the importance of having shows like #BossyBear Yes! 😁 To quote myself, "differences can be normalized, accepted and celebrated" Watch Bossy Bear weekdays on Nick at 11 EST @nickjr @Nickelodeon #bissybear

RIP David 🫶🏻 aka @jackfroot 💔 I still don't want to believe it's true. I'm in disbelief and heartbroken you're gone. You cared deeply about the Asian American community, and tirelessly amplified our stories and exposed many hate crimes that would otherwise be ignored.

History is more than just names & dates; its lessons can guide us toward a better future. Today, on the 76th anniversary of the 228 Incident, we remember the people who paid the ultimate price for Taiwan’s freedom & democracy.

Questioning my loyalty to the United States promotes the ugly stereotype that Asian Americans are forever foreigners in their own land. It is racist, it is disgusting, and it is dangerous.

The death toll in the #MontereyPark Lunar New Year mass shooting just rose to 11 as one victim who was injured has died at the hospital. This is a heartbreaking start to the new year. latimes.com/california/story…

🤯 Gwen Stefani just said in a 2023 interview with Allure, "My God, I'm Japanese and I didn't know it." I need to know if this white lady has ever spoken about the 120k+ Japanese Americans who were incarcerated in U.S. Japanese concentration camps.

For the record, the chancellor was NOT attempting to speak an actual language. It was his racist, made-up approximation of an Asian language. Think "ching chong."

The Golden Globe nominations were just announced and "Everything Everywhere All at Once" was nominated for SIX awards. Please help me manifest these nominations into WINS. Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, and the entire cast/crew one thousand percent deserve these awards.

Families of the tragedy in Itaewon are releasing details of their loved ones. This is a thread of who they are. Reading their names, seeing their faces, and learning about their stories broke me. Thank you to @VeryAsian for posting on IG #itaewon – at Boston, MA

Wong, to be the first Asian American on US currency, called for more representation and less stereotypical roles for Asian Americans on screen. Underpaid in Hollywood, she earned $6,000 for Shanghai Express while Marlene Dietrich made $78,166. For @npr npr.org/2022/10/18/112971792…
