ICYMI Encore Episode of Celebrating Anna May Wong

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 49! This is an #ICYMI (In Case You Missed It) Encore Episode. Originally airing as Episode 16 in Season 1, we were celebrating International Women’s Day and did a profile on Anna May Wong, the first Asian American actress and style icon extraordinaire. With the recent announcement that she will be featured on a U.S. quarter, making her the first Asian American to be featured on U.S. currency, it’s a good time to revisit this episode. There’s also aa upcoming biopic of Anna May Wong starring Gemma Chan! In this episode, we also take time to bring attention to The Center for Asian Pacific American Women. Check them out when you have a chance. They do incredible work!  For previous episodes and information, please visit our site at https://asianamericanhistory101.libsyn.com or social media links at http://castpie.com/AAHistory101.
