"'Carefully Taught' is a thought-provoking and at times comedic documentary revealing the intricate web between US policies, Asian stereotypes and media representation. Experts and artists deconstruct these images and share personal stories about its impact on individual lives. A timely countermeasure for rising Sinophobia in the West, this film confronts the surge in anti-Asian hate crimes and issues a powerful call for societal and individual reconstruction and solidarity."
The panel discussion took place shortly after the playing of the film. PBS's Shirley Min moderated the discussion which also included the film's director Cynthia Kao, and writer and actor Nathan Ramos-Park.
"It was great to be a part of the Philadelphia Asian American Film Festival and the Q&A panel after the screening," said Chou. The film was sold out and it was amazing to interact with the audience members afterwards at the closing reception. To be able to be a scholar and coach at Brown is really quite an honor and being invited to speak about sociology and community is a role I do not take for granted."
She's extremely grateful for the opportunities that Brown has granted her to be a coach and a teacher, which go hand-in-hand.
