Letter from Wa Yang
Submitted by Joil on Wed, 01/21/2009 - 15:57Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I’m pushing this information through to you and in hopes that you would join in the movement. As you may know Hollywood movies have always been unfair when it comes to casting certain roles, especially for Asians Actors. This next movie is a hit amongst the younger audiences, yes our kids our next generation. I believe if we don’t express are concerns and opinions to these head Producers/Directors/and Casting Directors they will never give a fair chance to Asian-American Actors, who are just as qualified as any other Actors.
