“There are hundreds of Asian American actors, writers, directors, media professionals, theaters, artists, comedians, bloggers, watchdog groups, advertisers, and others who have worked day after day to lay the groundwork for this moment. If we see improvements in how Asian Americans are represented, it will be because this film represents the culmination of their efforts.”
