Last year when my grandfather was diagnosed with cancer, I wrote to him asking if he would tell me about his life in Vietnam. No reply for months. Then this summer he gave me a stack of typewritten pages in Vietnamese. This is his incredible story: tienminhnguyen.medium.com/my-life-in-cha…


Watch the full campaign video for my film "Be Not Afraid" about a family's fight for justice after surviving a racist attack on @seedandspark seedandspark.com/fund/be-not-af… #StopAsianHate


For the past 3 years, I've been working on my first feature-length documentary called "Be Not Afraid." From scientist to journalist to filmmaker, I never imagined I'd end up here. It's been a beautiful journey and can't wait to share more very soon! 💛 (Design: Alec Figuracion)

Blaxploitation films were taking pop culture by storm in the 1970s, giving birth to Black Kung Fu movies. What happened to these films and are they making a return? Our latest video unpacks the history of how Black Kung Fu films became a sensation: to.pbs.org/3vArdxW
