Asian Heritage Month: Asia's enduring impact on pop culture

From 'Everything Everywhere All At Once' sweeping awards season, to Bollywood, K-Pop and K-Drama, Hollywood and pop culture has come a long way from the offensive stereotypes and whitewashing that defined the industry’s origins.
But, as barriers continue to be broken, many more remain standing.
We sit down with filmmaker Amanda Ann-Min Wong for more insight on the achievements thus far - and the work that still remains to support Asian creators and to achieve fair representation.

Is there a European heritage month in Asia?

[@societylost4344]

Is there any white politicians in any of those countries? So much for diversity for them. I mean….

[@on2thenextthing]

​@@societylost4344 Exactly. It's a joke at this point. Just woke nonsense.

[@thefridaynetwork]

When is White Heritage Month?

[@chongisTiberius]

European heritage month but yeah fair point.

[@MrUranium238]

I wonder how whites were portrayed in Asia? ....

[@grandmufftwerkin9037]

Does Trudeau have his costume line ready?

[@grandmufftwerkin9037]

It's rather amusing watching North America homogenize everything.
Terms such as 'Asian heritage,' 'boack history,' and 'whiteness' are just such lazy and simplistic concepts.

[@SaHlGood]

I’m not white but do they do the same in China Korea, Japan any other countries don’t think they do any of this for any other culture

[@YukiPyro]

No, This is all to push identity policies. Control the Culture. Canada is becoming more like China with the system.

[@rupakvp7553]

Bollywood is not like that it is more modern haven’t u people watched RRR

[@user-rh6ru5oz2o]

They don't represent me. I'm more than just an Asian face.

[@crystal2484]

Why aren't you calling those movie-making firms in Asia out or they still haven't come a long way? I am Chinese by the way.

[@user-rh6ru5oz2o]

They find it more empowering to beg white people to hire more Chinese people than to look at films made in Asia

[@on2thenextthing]

Who cares.
