Shownotes

"Try Harder!" is a documentary by Debbie Lum about Lowell High School, Asian Americans, and the competitive world of modern college admissions that premiered this week at the Sundance Film Festival. We chat about this doc that hits close to home as former "high-achieving" Asian Americans.

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR

"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
