Asians and Asian Americans have a long, complex, and diverse history in the South. Today, they are one of the fastest-growing populations here. Through oral history, Southern Mix documents the distinctive and powerful stories of these communities and shares them with the public.
“I am so excited to do this project. It’s been on my mind for years, and to finally have a chance to make it happen, that in and of itself is a gift I can pass on to my kids and my grandkids and the next generation of Asians and Asian Americans.”
