About Us
Ayana: White washing and yellow face of Hollywood is nothing new. Having a platform like YouTube where multifaceted communities exist with young creators who are changing the game of popular media is great to see.
Noushin: YouTube is the best place to find more about other countries and culture. Lawrence - Multi-plats like YouTube allows content creators to speak what's in their mind and helps Asian American YouTube creators find more about other cultures and content. Susanna: as a Korean American, I receive great inspiration and a sense of pride when I see Korean Americans on media platforms such as Youtube. Angela: With many mainstream medias, such as YouTube, it allow many Asian Americans creators to break the bad representations Asian Americans that Hollywood has created. |
The representation of Asian Americans has improved over the years but Hollywood still has a long way to go in regards to an inclusive industry for every body.
YouTube has proved to be an outlet for many young creators, but we've focused on five individuals who focus on the representation of Koreans and Asians in general. They have proved that Asian American's can be made into a popular face in media. It has become another platform that Asian Americans can stand on where they do not have to be filtered through the ideals of mainstream media. |
