Honored that our film is still being recognized today. @rtajima #ChristineChoy #NancyTong

[Peabody Awards @PeabodyAwards]

🔍 1980s Peabody history is underscored by the stories of three prominent social justice movements still resonating today.

"Who Killed Vincent Chin" is described as a "stirring & revealing expose of the nature of urban unrest & racial bitterness that lead to senseless acts."

Some are calling for Juneteenth to be a national holiday. How about we go further & pass healthcare & living wages for all, a fully restored Voting Rights Act & reparations, etc. Please don’t just ask for a holiday. Let’s make it a holy day of repentance & reconstruction.

Black museums join forces to commemorate the 155th anniversary of #JuneteenthDay. Watch live noonET, 9amPT
