I’m very excited to announce that my documentary, Far East Deep South premieres on the WORLD Channel (PBS) documentary series America ReFramed on Tuesday, May 4, 2021, 8:00 p.m. ET (check local listings). It will also be available to stream on WORLDchannel.org, PBS.org and the PBS Video app beginning at time of broadcast on May 4 and throughout May in honor of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
Film Synopsis: Charles Chiu and his family’s search for their roots takes them on an eye-opening journey through the Mississippi Delta, uncovering otherwise unknown stories and the racially complex history of Chinese immigrants in the segregated South. This Chinese American family’s unforgettable story offers a poignant and important perspective on race relations, immigration and American identity.
