    If I directed Sixteen Candles, then Long Duk Dong would be replaced by Brandon Chang, a gorgeous International student who blows sexist Jake Ryan out of the waters. The lead would be a South AsAm girl who finds her identity (w/Brandon's help) in middle-America. #ifawomandirectedhttps://twitter.com/FilmStruck/status/1054402377971834880 …

        I want films starring Asians of different ethnicities. "Since the 1980s among Asian-Americans, interracial marriages have been on the decline while Asian interethnic marriages among members with heritage of a different Asian nation have been on the rise." https://news.ku.edu/2016/04/28/study-asian-american-couples-finds-interracial-marriage-not-best-measure-immigrant …

        I crushed on East, South and Southeast Asian boys growing up in Cerritos. I wanted to go the prom so badly with a Sri-Lankan Muslim boy. I related to #ToAllTheBoysIveLovedBefore so much, but the actual love letters I wrote were to Korean and Vietnamese American boys.pic.twitter.com/LITKMbNsIr

        I used the case study of Long Duk Dong in order to teach racist, controlling images. My students were shocked that existed. It is really shameful.

        From talking to folks, it had such a huge negative impact on the perceptions & self-esteems of East Asian American men growing up in that era.

        Nancy - brilliant counternarrative as usual of course - but I first read it as "Brandon Chang, a gorgeous international student who blows sexist Jake Ryan" and I was like whoa, that would be interesting
