A podcast created for Asian American & Pacific Islander women on leadership and culture. Iโ€™ve wanted to carve out a space for AAPI women to explore and validate living in both Eastern and Western worlds. Each week we will celebrate our heritage and highlight our history as we explore our AAPI journeys, parts that we are proud of and those of pain.

Episode 10 - Victoria Park

 

EPISODE 10 W/ VICTORIA PARK

Absolutely loved my conversation with the talented and delightful Victoria Park. As an actress and filmmaker, Victoria is comfortable behind and in front of the camera. We talked about how our Asian DNA is infused into all of the different areas in our lives. Victoria shared examples of this working in the industry from her gratitude for those who have gone before, the strong community of those currently share the space with her, and the hope she has for those Asian Americans growing up seeing someone who looks like them on the screen. Canโ€™t wait for you to listen to this weekโ€™s episode!

Victoria Park is an actress, filmmaker, and self-professed cat lady. You can watch her on CW's The Flash, on Tuesday nights at 8/7c. She is also known for her role as Gaby Cho on the critically-acclaimed show "Sweet/Vicious" on MTV, and her leading role in feature film "Everything Before Us" by Wong Fu productions, whom she also frequently collaborates with. When not working, she can be found getting lost in the great outdoors, spending time with friends and incredible husband, and/or eating all the things."

DID YOU KNOW

In 1885, Mamie Tape, an 8 year-old Chinese-American girl, became a catalyst for school desegregation. Her parents decided to file a lawsuit when their daughter was not allowed to enroll in the Spring Valley Primary School in San Francisco. The landmark Supreme Court decision known as Tape v. Hurley, rule that state law required public education should be open to all children. This work to fight for the right for public education to be available to all children emerged 70 years before the historical Brown v. Board decision to desegregate schools for African-American children.
