@cteacher1405 It’s essential to use our voice to break down these harmful stereotypes causing discrimination for the Asian community, matter of fact, for any community suffering from prejudice. Educating ourselves is the first step towards equality between races and individuals

@cteacher1405 The topic on which I chose to raise awareness is the drastic raise of anti-Asian crimes, especially since the beginning of the pandemic. Anti-Asian hate crimes increased by 145% in America’s largest cities according to the Centre for the Study of Hate and Extremism.

@cteacher1405 According to her, instinct is stronger than knowledge for the sole reason that you can not prove with facts something that has not been done before. Prioritizing feeling over knowledge helped her to move forward and to become the innovative woman that she is today

@cteacher1405 Being academically skilled and talented in many different fields of study isn’t necessarily the key to success. That is what Angela Ahrendts tells us during her interview with Sal Khan. Doing only what she loved her whole life brought her to where she is now

@cteacher1405 Seeing this « hidden » part of the world empowers us and grabs our focus because we’re used to the boring and repetitive mainstream. Personally, my craving for curiosity can’t be satisfied with these conventional films: I want to see what goes on being closed doors.

@cteacher1405 Moore���s « best documentary » rule that resonates with me the most is to point your cameras at the cameras: you should tell your audience about what goes on behind the scenes and what is not covered by the media. The making-of can be as interesting as the film itself
