Episode 158: #StopAsianHate with Vincent Tong

This is the third episode in our #StopAsianHate series where we explore the intersection between anti-Asian hate and the film and television industry. Voice artist and actor Vincent Tong (Ninjago; 16 Hudson) returns to the YVR Screen Scene Podcast to talk about his experiences navigating the voice, stage, and on-camera worlds as an Asian Canadian actor: how his ethnicity impacted his dreams; what the film and television industry can learn about diversity and inclusion initiatives from the theatre scene; and what it means to him to voice a Chinese American kid in 16 Hudson.
