Public outcry over the lack of Asian representation and visibility in Hollywood has been raging for almost two decades, and it is picking up steam.
Films such as ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ in 2018, with an all-Asian lead cast, pushed the cause into the mainstream. And now, with Chloe Zhao becoming the first Asian female to win a Golden Globe Award in the best director category on Sunday night, the industry is again reminded of the value of diversity.
