I need to make more mistakes in life. (Except for forgetting to call my nephew on his birthday. That was a bad mistake.) #fridaymotivation
My Dad was on the USS America when I was a kid. I can still smell the steel of the ship when I would visit. It was a massive ship. Dad would bring home USS America hats and bumper stickers. Pop didn’t die while in service, but I grew up in Va Beach surrounded by a lot of military because of his NAVY years. I miss the way we would see our military service men and women out and about and we would always thank them for their sacrifice. Living in LA, there isn’t that same connection here but I’m wishing our service men and women a happy Memorial Day. Remembering those who’ve given their lives for their country. And bowing my head in gratitude. #memorialdayweekend 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Baseball and Internment. Life is coming back full circle. My friend @dan.kwong is recreating history and also commemorating a painful time in Asian American history with baseball. The story has been featured on NPR and @usatoday (link in bio). Manzanar where more than 120,000 JAs were incarcerated will be reawakened for a real baseball game this SEPTEMBER in the same period era style it was played back then during camp life. This moves me so much 😭😭😭 and I plan on attending! Hope you can learn more about internment life, how Japanese Americans endured it all and what baseball meant to them. Please share and attend. If you build it, they will come. Dan has been dreaming about this event for most of his life and I love seeing it getting the attention it deserves…this needed to happen. ❤️🩹 ☮️ That’s his mother Momo when she was in the camp at age 15! If you’re a documentary filmmaker…this is one helluva story. Contact Dan! He’s looking for a collaborator. #manzanar #japaneseinternment #aapiheritagemonth

More #filmfestivals! @chattfilmfest up next for NIAN. Along with @poppyjasperiff Asian American showcase for showing a double bill of NIAN and BITE! And many thanks to @fargofilmfest @milkwaukee.filmfest which also featured Nian. I have been shadowing the past month and my sincere apologies for not being able to attend. But I want to thank each and every one of these programmers Mattie Scariot, Shanshan Whittal, Michael Stromenger and Jack Féria, respectively for including Nian in their film festival lineup. The energy around NIAN has been incredible and I’m inspired to continue working in this very exciting genre #horrorfims. I have run out of stills to use. 🤣
