I’m super excited to announce that Anna May Wong: In Her Own Words is now available to watch online!

The documentary recently premiered on PBS (April 30th) and I believe that it will be shown throughout the rest on the month. Click Here to see when it will air on your local PBS station. 

Don’t fool yourself. English isn’t inherently superior, or easier to learn, or more sonically pleasing. Its international usage comes from forceful assimilation and legacy of colonialistic injection. It isn’t a deed that one should take pride in.
