DESCRIPTION:Thursday, May 20, 3pm-5:30pm Pacific time\n\nStagebridge and Asian American 
 Storytellers in Unity join forces to uplift the diverse cultures and 
 heritage of the Asian American and Pacific Islander diaspora in FINDING 
 OURSELVES IN AMERICA: ASIAN AMERICAN VOICES.\n\nAs a direct response to the 
 recent anti-Asian attacks across the United States, this one-of-a-kind 
 digital event brings together 16 nationally-recognized storytellers for a 
 stimulating and informative gathering. Through personal narratives, 
 historical stories, folktales, art, and music, these storytellers will 
 elevate immigration experiences, discrimination, struggles with 
 self-identity, and cross-cultural understanding.\n\nSan Francisco Bay Area 
 storytellers Eleanor Clement Glass and Linda Yemoto coordinate this 
 star-studded lineup including award-winning journalist Emil Guillermo 
 (former host of "All Things Considered"), cultural activists Robert 
 Kikuchi-Yngojo and Nancy Wang (Eth-Noh-Tec), and playwright and actress 
 M.J. Kang (Noran Bang: The Yellow Room).\n\nOther artists include Alton 
 Takiyama Chung (Hawaii), Anne Shimojima (Illinois), Roopa Mohan 
 (California), Motoko Dworkin (Massachusetts), Joel Ying (Florida), Bowen 
 Lee (California), Karin Amano (Georgia), Tobey Ishii Anderson (Washington), 
 Yasu Ishida (South Carolina) and Kuniko Yamamoto (Florida).\n\nThis event 
 will kick off Finding Ourselves in America, a Stagebridge series 
 highlighting BIPOC voices through storytelling partnerships with artists 
 from Oakland and beyond. \n\nFINDING OURSELVES IN AMERICA: ASIAN AMERICAN 
 VOICES will be live-streamed on the Stagebridge YouTube channel for 
 individuals who cannot access digitally. This event is recommended for ages 
 12 and up, but all are welcome.\n\nFree\n
