In another segment of "Asians Doing Cool Sh*t," we talk to Amy Tsang, an actor and filmmaker based in LA. Knowing how stereotypical Asian parents feel about pursuing a career in the arts, Amy defied those norms and made her way into the film and TV industry. We discuss what it was like starting her acting career in Hong Kong and transitioning to the U.S. where suddenly her Asian-ness was something she had to consider in its effect on what opportunities were available to her. We also discuss the positive change that's happening now with a more diverse range of stories being told thanks to the rise of young Asian-American filmmakers taking things into their own hands and creating projects to highlight stories we otherwise would not see. Come be inspired by another cool Asian doing cool sh*t!
