Anderson says if you don’t get the joke, then that’s your problem. Wonder if he would be saying the same thing if he made a joke using the N-word. flip.it/3Yxo_V

Another #SonyPictures #Whitewashed mess, #BulletTrain adapts a Japanese novel but barely uses any Asian people. #JoeyKing Why did you lie about never wanting to play non-White characters? #APIs Let’s support something better. #BradPitt has enough $. rafu.com/2022/08/manaa-…

When Everything Everywhere All At Once won Best Original Screenplay, then editing, I was pretty confident they were going to win the Big One. Then Michelle Yeoh became the 1st Asian woman to win Best Actress! 7 wins out of 11 nominations! What a great night! #OscarsSoAsian!

It’s no longer surprising to see television series & movies starring Asian Americans. And that’s due in large part to the behind-the-scenes work MANAA has done educating—& sometimes fighting with--Hollywood for 31 years. Hope you’ll donate to us #GiveInMay giveinmay.org/organization/M…

Another important topic! Instead of a Crazy Rich Asians movie sequel, there’ll be a series on HBO’s Max. Adele Lim, who quit the sequel over pay disparities, will be back as showrunner & executive producer. variety.com/2025/tv/news/c… #manaa0325
