What people are saying

Rick Goldsmith's class visit and screening of Stripped for Parts this semester were meaningful and inspiring high impact events that generated discussion and engagement throughout the rest of the semester.

Dr. Jessica Hughes

Millersville University

Larissa Lam and Baldwin Chiu’s guest lecture on Far East Deep South deeply engaged my students by revealing the rich, often overlooked history of Chinese Americans in the South and the powerful alliance between Black and Chinese communities. Their insights into media, identity, and the ‘model minority’ myth made sociological principles of power, resistance, and social change come alive.

Dr. Chandra D.L. Warning

University of Massachusetts Lowell

We were thrilled to welcome Director Ellen Brodsky [The Year We Thought About Love] and cast member Kemani Williams for an inspiring Q&A session. Kemani’s personal insights and Ellen's vision added a meaningful layer to the experience, sparking thoughtful discussions on allyship, acceptance, and self-expression.

What else people are saying

Eye Opening…learned a lot! Lisa and Alan were knowledgeable, approachable, and down to earth good people doing great things. They enriched our community with their presence.

Jen Steer, Riverwoods Durham Retirement Community

The film itself was very impactful, but Rodney was fantastic in the Q&A segment as well. We received wonderful feedback after the fact, and one of our members actually reached out to share they have been diagnosed with the same condition so this was really incredible for them.

Emily DeYoung, Inova

James [Chan and his film, Forever Chinatown] inspired our San Francisco team to visit the Chinese Historical Society. Following the conversation, we asked our agency to sign a petition to halt the construction of the world’s tallest jail in the middle of NYC’s Chinatown.
