This whole week, CNN’s 6:00 AM EST morning show “American Morning“, “Survivor” Winner Yul Kwon takes the viewer
beyond the stereotypes to expose the real issues facing Asian-Americans today. In today’s segment, Kwon interviews Lost star Daniel Dae Kim about dealing with stereotypes in television and movies. I’m told that there will be segments on “The glass ceiling for Asian Americans in corporate America” and “Affirmative action in education.”
What next?
