Event Details

Celebrate and learn more with community members during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month!

Conversations in Context is hosted by MTV News correspondent Yoonj Kim and produced by the Smithsonian Channel. The brief films cover a number of topics, ranging from Asian American stereotypes in Hollywood to student protests for socioeconomic change.

Light refreshments will be provided by a local AAPI restaurant before the film, and a post-screening panel discussion with AAPI community members will follow.
