Nice to see that he's doing something so prominent and really needed. It would be very interesting if they featured James Shigeta's movie, Crimson Kimono, which is thought to feature the first-ever kiss between an Asian man and a white woman in American film. It's totally campy and a guilty pleasure, but it's a great movie to watch just for the way the Japanese Americans are portrayed in the film.
