What were the most practice-changing thoracic surgery papers of 2024? In this episode of Thinking Thoracic, Dr. Linda Martin, UVA Health, and Dr. Jeff Yang, Thinking Thoracic co-host, spotlight top studies shaping the field, from groundbreaking lung cancer and esophageal cancer findings to surgical profession papers that impact how surgeons work and lead. Dr. Martin's curated list is a go-to resource for surgeons looking to stay at the forefront of evidence-based care. Check out her GTSC Key Papers presentation here.
In this episode of Thinking Thoracic, co-host Dr. Jeff Yang welcomes Dr. Gavitt Woodard and Dr. Christopher Seder to discuss their recent research on lobectomy versus sublobar resection for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Their studies, leveraging data from The STS General Thoracic Surgery Database, provide valuable insights into the long-term survival outcomes of these surgical approaches. Hear from Dr. Woodard on how her study, recognized as the Richard E. Clark Memorial Paper, aimed to evaluate patient populations that were not well represented in prior randomized trials, such as older adults and those with poorer pulmonary function. Dr. Seder explains how his research took a complementary approach, examining over 32,000 patients from 2012 to 2022, with a focus on distinguishing the survival outcomes between lobectomy, segmentectomy, and wedge resection.
In this episode, hear from Thinking Thoracic hosts, Drs. Erin Gillaspie, Hari Keshava, Jeff Yang, and Jane Yanagawa as they participated in a sublobar debate on extent of resection that took place at the 2025 STS Annual Meeting. Are you Team Wedge or Team Segment? Hear the unique perspectives and best practices from these experts on the extent of resection and quality metrics in lung cancer care, as well as other changing trends.

Jeff and Phil welcome filmmaker Jean Shim and actress Jae Suh Park, director and star of the independent drama A Great Divide -- also co-written and produced by our very own Jeff Yang. They talk about making a movie inspired by the contemporary backdrop of anti-Asian hate, the personal experiences with racism and xenophobia that informed the film's story and characters, the quirks and challenges of shooting in the wilds of Wyoming, and why it's convenient to have a doctor on set -- especially if that doctor is Ken Jeong.

Grace L. Dillon is an American academic and author. She is a professor in the Indigenous Nations Studies Program, in the School of Gender, Race, and Nations, at Portland State University. She received her PhD in literary studies with an emphasis in sixteenth-century literature, and her recent research regards Science fiction studies, especially the use of science fiction by indigenous peoples around the world. Similar to the concept of Afrofuturism, Dillon is best known for coining the term Indigenous Futurisms, which is a movement consisting of art, literature and other forms of media which express Indigenous perspectives of the past, present and future in the context of science fiction and related sub-genres. Dillon is the editor of Walking the Clouds: An Anthology of Indigenous Science Fiction, which is the first anthology of Indigenous science fiction short stories, published by the University of Arizona Press in 2012. Previously, Dillon has edited Hive of Dreams: Contemporary Science Fiction from the Pacific Northwest, which was published in 2003 by Oregon State University Press. This is an anthology of science fiction from writers living in the Pacific Northwest, and features works from authors such as Greg Bear, Octavia Butler, and Molly Gloss. She also coedited The Routledge Handbook of CoFuturisms with Taryne Jade Taylor, Isiah Lavender III, and Bodhisattva Chattopadhyay. Here, we discuss with Grace her origins into science fiction and the mentorships she received from the distinguished feminist science fiction writer, Ursula K. LaGuin. We define the concept of Indigenous Futurisms and its origins, taking time to understand the representation of the future and of tradition and what indigenous scientists have taught us about environmental sustainability. She also discusses the genre in other media, including film, television, and graphic novels, all of which are experiencing the growth of native contributions in recent years.Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper:In the article that inspired the episode, friend of the podcast Jeff Yang wrote about indigenous responses to James Cameron's Avatar:Opinion: The awkward truth about the new ‘Avatar' is far bigger than its bottom line | CNNGrace Dillon BooksWalking the Clouds: An Anthology of Indigeneous Science FictionThe Routledge Handbook on Co-FuturismsHer Mentor:Ursula K.

The Golden Screen, the new book by Jeff Yang, offers a comprehensive guide to some of the most significant films for Asian American representation, including commentary by industry trailblazers like Daniel Dae Kim, Janet Yang and Simu Liu.

Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the United States. An estimated 238,340 people in the U.S. will be diagnosed with lung cancer in 2023, and 64% of lung cancers are diagnosed at stage III or IV. With all of these facts, it's surprising that lung cancer screening, a tool that could save lives, is rarely used. Why is that? Who does that impact the most? And what changes can be made? We spoke with Jeff Yang, MD, a thoracic surgeon at Massachusetts General Hospital and founder of the American Lung Cancer Screening Initiative, about symptoms, recommended lung cancer screenings, and available treatment options. We then spoke with Narjust Florez, MD, associate director of the Cancer Care Equity Program and a thoracic medical oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, about the stigma and lung cancer patients experience and how patients can better advocate for themselves.

“For little kids like us growing up in the South to see someone that looked like you on the screen is super important, but I now need the white person to see the Asian story. I need the Asian person to see the Black story — representation matters on a lot of fronts.” Keith Chow is the founder of the Nerds of Color, where Raman was recently a guest on one of Keith's podcasts — “Southern Fried Asian.” Typically, stories about Asian Americans are centered on the experiences of those who grew up on the coasts -- New York, Southern California, the Bay Area -- where large and diverse Asian Americans communities have lived and thrived for decades. On Southern Fried Asian, Keith takes a look at a part of the country that isn't typically associated with these stories and unpack what it means to be Asian American in the American South. Keith grew up in rural Virginia, and as you know, Raman grew up in (the suburbs of) the great state of Alabama, so was really interested to have a chat with Keith to compare notes on solving racism with podcasts, what politics ought to look like in the South, the secret identities of superheroes, and of course, mom's channa bhatura. Beyond being a podcast impresario, Keith is also one of the original creators of Secret Identities: The Asian American Superhero Anthology, alongside Jeff Yang, Parry Shen, and Jerry Ma. Keith's writing has appeared in The New York Times and NBC News. Vanity Fair has called him an “incisive interviewer and chummy conversationalist” - so it's no wonder that Raman and Keith got along famously...

In this latest episode of "Shoes Off Inside with MKT", May, Kelly and Tamlyn kick off the show with some hot topics on their minds. The use of Ozempic, a diabetic drug, by celebrities and others to lose weight has May hopping mad! Kelly reveals how she got ready to shoot an intimate scene for her TV show and shares the tricks of the trade. Tamlyn gives us a hint about what's she's been shooting for HBO Max. But then things get very serious with writer and author Jeff Yang, who recently, in a New York Times opinion piece, addressed the mass shootings in California that were all perpetrated by older Asian men. These gunman didn't fit the "typical" profile of a mass shooter in the U.S. All the more reason to dig deeper into these tragic events and not dismiss them as "just another shooting". We wanted to better understand the complexity of what could have led to these shootings, including mental health and Asians, cultural divides, socio-economic differences, marginalization within API communities and the biggest issue of all, guns. These are heavy topics that need to be addressed openly and honestly with people who are willing to tackle them head on. May, Kelly, Tamlyn and Jeff do it together in this episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to this podcast!

April is National Poetry Month and whether you love poetry or not, you've likely heard of poet laureates. You may not know what that distinction means, however. There are all kinds of poet laureates—of countries, or states, of cities, and of even smaller areas. A poet laureate is appointed by a head of government for her or his accomplishments and may publish poems for special occasions. It is an honor that comes with a lot of flexibility. In this week's episode, we chat with Luisa A. Igloria, a native of the Philippines who came to the US to attend graduate school and is one of only four poet laureates of color for the state of Virginia. She was appointed to the position right as Covid took over our lives in 2020. She talks about the three cornerstone projects she wanted to launch in order to make poetry a larger part of the community. You can find Luisa on instagram at @poetslizard.

When the Hart-Celler Act passed in 1965, opening up U.S. immigration to non-Europeans, it ushered in a whole new era. But even to the first generation of Asian Americans born in the U.S. after that milestone, it would have been impossible to imagine that sushi and boba would one day be beloved by all, that a Korean boy band named BTS would be the biggest musical act in the world, that one of the most acclaimed and popular movies of 2018 would be Crazy Rich Asians, or that we would have an Asian American Vice President. Not to mention the creators, performers, entrepreneurs, and influencers making it all happen, both behind the scenes and on the screen. And then there are the activists and representatives who continue to fight for equity, building coalitions and defiantly holding space for Asian American voices and concerns. And still: Asian America is just getting started. Authors Jeff Yang, Phil Yu, and Philip Wang offered a love letter to and for Asian Americans in RISE — a scrapbook of voices, emotions, and memories from an era in which Asian American culture was forged and transformed. On an intimate, humorous tour through the pop-cultural touchstones and sociopolitical shifts of the past 30-plus years, Yang, Yu, and Wang chronicled how we arrived at today's unprecedented diversity of Asian American cultural representation. From a step-by-step guide to a night out in K-Town to a handy “Appreciation or Appropriation?” flowchart, they celebrated the path from the past to the present through nostalgia and shared experiences. Jeff Yang has been observing, exploring, and writing about the Asian American community for over thirty years. He launched one of the first Asian American national magazines, A. Magazine, in the late '90s and early 2000s, and now writes frequently for CNN, Quartz, Slate, and elsewhere. He has written/edited three books — New York Times-best-selling memoir, I Am Jackie Chan: My Life in Action; Once Upon a Time in China, a history of the cinemas of Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Mainland; and Eastern Standard Time: A Guide to Asian Influence on American Culture. Phil Yu is the founder and editor of the popular Asian American news and culture blog, Angry Asian Man, which has had a devoted following since 2001. His commentary has been featured and quoted in The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, NPR, and elsewhere. Philip Wang is the co-founder of the hugely influential production company Wong Fu Productions. Since the mid-2000s, his creative work has garnered over 3 million subscribers and half a billion views online, as well as recognition from NPR and CNN for its impact on Asian American representation.

“…A big part of this book is to have a more whole picture of our history here. It is the last 30 years, 90s to now, but we do devote a big chunk of the before as well because we want to plant those roots and say This began a long time ago. Let's at least start this conversation where we acknowledge and have a more deep understanding of our history. It doesn't all end with this book either." Jeff Yang, Phil Yu, and Philip Wang join us on the show to talk about their fabulous, beautifully illustrated new book, Rise: A Pop History of Asian America from the 90s to Now, which covers all things—not just East—Asian American. Jeff, Phil and Philip riff on where we're really from, things we love, what the words Asian American and representation really mean, Vincent Chin, Fresh Off the Boat and Crazy Rich Asians, Jeff and Phil's podcast They Call Us Bruce, and more with Poured Over's host, Miwa Messer. Featured Book: Rise: A Pop History of Asian America from the 90s to Now Poured Over is produced and hosted by Miwa Messer, edited by David Eitel and mixed by Harry Liang.

This one goes out to the Asian diaspora Gen X, millennial & Gen Z-ers who are getting better acquainted with or just further embracing tf out of their Asian identities. For most of us Asian Americans, we grew up assimilating, disconnecting, and/or over-representing this side of ourselves - our languages, customs, features - in a society where we were mostly stereotyped, fetishized, or simply overlooked and ignored. But throughout the many decades since our parents and grandparents immigrated from our motherlands, we've created spaces, trends, and our own subcultures that have blossomed into a unique and increasingly stronger identity. In this episode, Minji sits down with two Asian American trailblazers who have contributed their life's work to carving out a space for our stories - writers & public figures Jeff Yang and Phil Yu (aka AngryAsianMan). Together they discuss their new book RISE, co-authored with Phil Wang of WongFu Productions, which covers some highlights in the evolution of Asian American pop culture. They dive into how times have changed, the significance of challenging the status quo, and the importance of a supportive, unified community to address bigotry, hate, and ignorance.

When the coronavirus summarily shut down the world in 2020, we were all sent home to figure how to live, work and play from a distance. Within weeks millions learned to use digital platforms to connect to work, family, school, and friends. Streaming services like Amazon Prime, Hulu and Netflix benefited greatly. In one year, subscriptions during the pandemic rose over 30% and increased to 1 billion subscribers worldwide. On this episode, guest host Dr. Melanye Price chats with her favorite content viewing partner, twin sister, Melynda Price, along with cultural critic Jeff Yang, who's co-host of the podcast, They Call Us Bruce and author of RISE: A Pop History of Asian America from the ‘90s to Now. Yang also shares his unique perspective on why there's a lack of Asian American representation in the media today. We're taking a closer look at streaming in the American mainstream on this episode of I SEE U.
Can the U.S Legal System Deliver Justice? Two recent cases bring that question into the forefront. Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt spared the life of Julius Jones by commuting his death sentence four hours before his execution. Jones will spend the rest of his life in jail despite his claims of innocence and ineffective counsel. Kyle Rittenhouse who killed two people and maimed another was found not guilty on all charges because he claimed self defense. Paul Butler, the Albert Brick Professor in Law at Georgetown University Law Center joins us to discuss the two cases, and the true meaning of justice under our current legal system. The U.S. Has a Nursing Crisis The pandemic has placed intense stress on nurses nationwide, leading many to consider leaving the profession altogether. For more on this, The Takeaway spoke with Jean Ross, president of National Nurses United, the largest organization of registered nurses in the United States, and Leo-Felix Jurado, professor and chairperson at the William Paterson University Department of Nursing. Netflix Adapts Popular Anime Show "Cowboy Bebop" to Live Action Part science fiction, part Neo-noir, with a splash of slapstick comedy, the anime series "Cowboy Bebop" follows a ragtag group of bounty hunters, called cowboys, as they track down fugitives across space in a dystopian future. Adapting animated stories like “Cowboy Bebop” into live action is no easy feat. Anime especially, since it has a pretty unique visual and storytelling style that doesn't necessarily translate well to live actors. That's according to Shirley Li, staff writer covering culture for The Atlantic. The Takeaway recently spoke with her and Jeff Yang, cultural critic and co-author of the forthcoming book Rise: A Pop History of Asian America from the Nineties to Now, about the new live action “Cowboy Bebop” series.

With the recent box office success of movies like Shang-Chi and Candyman along with other movies that center multicultural storylines, is the mainstream entertainment industry becoming more representative? More diverse casting, and the willingness to have conversations about diversity, have gained steam and attention in recent years, but what does that really mean? A survey by the Division of Social Sciences at UCLA found that only 2.5 out of 10 film directors are people of color. What's still missing from the discussion? What's Hollywood still getting wrong? And how has the pandemic complicated - or taught us - things? Local and national media experts discuss the current film and entertainment landscape - and how diversity is being addressed.

After a year and a half of the pandemic, ‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings', Marvel's first blockbuster film to feature an Asian American superhero did big numbers at the box office. This is from the same country where politicians were calling the COVID-19 virus the "China Flu", and we had a spate of violent crimes targeting Asian-Americans. In this episode of Know What You See, Brian Lowery talks to Jeff Yang and Phil Yu, co-hosts of the podcast "They Call Us Bruce" about how negative stereotypes and the deep lack of representation in the culture can lead to active change.

Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's independence day. Mexican independence is celebrated Sept.16. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican army's unlikely victory over the French forces of Napoleon III on May 5, 1862, at the Battle of Puebla. Audrey Whitlock, one of the organizers of demonstrations against stay-home orders, has been in quarantine. In a post on ReOpenNC's private Facebook page obtained by several local media outlets, Whitlock described herself as “asymptomatic.” She said she had an antibody test done out of curiosity. It has been insinuated by others that if I go out, I could be arrested for denying a quarantine order,” Whitlock wrote, adding that she believes such an arrest would be a violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act. In a NBC News Article reported by Tim Stelloh. A New York City police officer who was recorded on video slapping a man and brandishing a stun gun over the weekend was placed on modified duty, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Sunday. The officer then wrestles the man to the ground, punching and slapping him before he's dragged from the street onto the sidewalk and handcuffed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOC9YgTIDnk Jennvine Wong, a lawyer with the Legal Aid Society's Cop Accountability Project, said footage of the arrests Saturday stood in sharp contrast to photos and video — including some tweeted out by the police department — showing officers in crowded city parks handing out face masks and gently reminding people to stay 6 feet apart. SANTEE, CA (WTVD) -- Shoppers at a California grocery store were shocked to see a man wearing a Ku Klux Klan hood as his COVID-19 face covering while shopping over the weekend. Law enforcement was not called to the scene, but San Diego County Sheriff's Department said it has opened an investigation into the incident. "Santee is not about that. We don't condone that. And, and it's just a sad reminder of how people can be intolerant," John Minto, Mayor stated. Jeff Yang experienced what he calls his own “breathing while Asian” moment last week while shopping at his local grocery store in Los Angeles. Even as the host of a podcast about being Asian in America, Yang says he was taken aback when a woman leaving the store noticed him — the only Asian in line — and started shouting profanities. “She pulled down her mask, coughed theatrically in my direction, pulled up her mask, walked away, got into a car and drove away,” Yang recalls. “I was too shocked to do anything.” Incidents like these have been on the rise in recent weeks, and some have escalated beyond these verbal assaults. A family of three were stabbed outside a store in Midland, Texas, last month. The FBI says the man who was arrested after that incident may face federal hate crime charges. The FBI is also warning local law enforcement around the country of a potential surge in hate crime incidents against Asian Americans because of coronavirus fears, according to an FBI analysis obtained by ABC News.

Journalist Jeff Yang was stunned after experiencing a racist attack at the grocery store. Now, he’s finding himself asking some tough questions about what allyship looks like in the age of Covid-19. He joins Rebecca to reflect on the disturbing trope of the “model minority,” the ways that communities of color continue to be encouraged to work against one another, and how to find solidarity when you've become a national target.

This episode originally ran 07/26/2018 The Album: Boyz II Men: II (1994) Phil Yu is better known to most as Angry Asian Man...except that he isn't actually all that angry (though he is Asian and a man). Phil started his titular site nearly 20 years ago and since then, it has become an indispensable news resource about Asian American culture, politics and related issues. Phil, along with Jeff Yang, also hosts his own Asian American culture podcast, They Call Us Bruce. Phil wanted to revisit one of the big hit albums of his youth: II by Boyz II Men. By '94, the group was already one of the biggest acts in all of R&B and expectations were beyond high for the follow-up. The quartet of crooners from Philly didn't disappoint as II continued the group's reign at the top, especially thanks to smooth ballads like "Water Runs Dry," "On Bended Knee" and of course, "I'll Make Love To You." (The three of us couldn't stop laughing when we were discussing the majesty that was the video for that single. Shout out to sexy finger wags.) More on Phil Yu Interview with KoreAm Magazine.

The Sunspring Metal Corporation is a leading producer of cast metal goods, manufacturing zinc and brass bathroom and door fittings. The two new production lines are equipped with different machining technologies and have been fitted with EROWA Robots. Aiding the automation further are EROWA workpiece tooling systems, measuring machines, wash stations and also the JMS 4.0 process control system. Jeff Yang, Senior Director of Engineering at Sunspring says “The aim was to improve plant effectiveness by reducing machine down-time, but at the same time, we had to ensure the produced parts would be of the highest quality and available on time.” Stable production processes are indispensable in tool and mould-making; and have to be guaranteed even when operating with minimum supervision or unmanned. Sunspring chose EROWA to supply the automation for the two production lines. One of the lines runs Makino machining centres as well as several wire EDM machine tools. This set-up is served by a rail mounted EROWA Robot Dynamic 250 XT. In addition, there is an EROWA CMM Qi measuring machine and an EROWA Lift. The EROWA Robot Dynamic is a flexible and extendable handling system for economical loading of machining centres. It can automate the loading and unloading of up to eight machines by running on rails up to 20m long. One of the important features for automated manufacturing of single parts and small batches is that the system can switch automatically between different pallet sizes. The Robot Dynamic is suitable for loading large and small pallet loaded workpieces weighing up to 250kg with various machine loading options. The second line also consists of several machining centres that are complimented by several EDM machines. This line is served by an EROWA Robot Dynamic 500 on a rail. Here, too, a C-M-M Q-i is in operation as well as an EROWA RoboSpa wash station. Palletised workpieces up to 500kg or up to 800 by 800 by 500mm can be loaded onto the machine tool safely and precisely with the Robot Dynamic 500. It has an exchange gripper system that can handle almost all EROWA pallets and systems. The robot switches to the relevant system according to the jobs it has been assigned. This removes any obstacles in the way of mixed and flexible manufacturing. The EROWA Q-i measuring machines fitted to each of the lines have been designed to be shopfloor hardened, with solid granite tables and specially cast portal structures. Stable linear axes move on high-precision rails with air bearings combined with symmetrical central axis drives to minimise the effects of thermal fluctuations. Fully prepared for automatic loading, it can be integrated into automatic production systems without any problems. The high-precision Renishaw measuring probe systems provide the highest degree of flexibility. The workpieces are also fitted with RFID chips, that relay all the real-time data about every available individual workpiece in the system at any moment. This includes pre-setting, current magazine position, scheduled machining processes and so on. Finally, EROWA’s J-M-S 4-point-0 Mold Line process control system is used for the overall control of the production lines. Equipped with a wide variety of interfaces with order processing and production planning systems such as E-R-P, P-P-S, CAD and CAM, it means that direct imports and feedback becomes substantially faster and more secure. Jeff Yang says “The process control system is very important. We wanted the production processes to be mapped in the control system, so when an order is created in the JMS 4.0, the individual steps are defined far ahead of the actual machining date. Therefore, the availability of machines, electrodes and workpieces, as well as queries for CAM data, are part of the plan right from the start.” “The RFID chip identification of electrodes and workpieces is the nucleus of the solution. Since the system has all the data of all the workpieces and is aware of their precise position in the process, there is always clarity about the state and correct execution of the work. This provides the operator with certainties.” Globally the company employs around 6,000 people and everyone at Sunspring is convinced that they have set the right course into the future with this automation investment. Jeff Yang concludes by saying “We want to be ready for Industry 4.0. So, all investments are geared towards the ongoing development of I4.0 and we are convinced that with EROWA, we've got the right partner on board.”
Today is our first of three episodes [exploring why we all need] critics of color. Colin talks to Jeff Yang, an American writer, journalist, and business/media consultant who has written for The Wall Street Journal and CNN, and, Mauricio Mota, a producer of East Los High, an award-winning [Hulu] drama series that has earned five Emmy nominations for its realistic portrayal of Latinx high school students. We talk about the gatekeeping responsibility and power of the few critics of color when they are critiquing media coming from their own communities: They can break or make a show or movie. We [also] discuss their importance for unpacking the cultural context and nuance of movies such as Crazy Rich Asians and Coco [within their fan community and for those encountering these more inclusive representations for the first time]. We also discuss how globalization should, and can, [work in unexpected ways]: Coco did very well in China, for example. But, how do we move forward? “Everyone can be a critic” says Mota, but for a long time “we were not allowed to have taste in this town”.
Guest: Phil Yu The Album: Boyz II Men: II (1994) Phil Yu is better known to most as Angry Asian Man...except that he isn't actually all that angry (though he is Asian and a man). Phil started his titular site nearly 20 years ago and since then, it has become an indispensable news resource about Asian American culture, politics and related issues. Phil, along with Jeff Yang, also hosts his own Asian American culture podcast, They Call Us Bruce. Phil wanted to revisit one of the big hit albums of his youth: II by Boyz II Men. By '94, the group was already one of the biggest acts in all of R&B and expectations were beyond high for the follow-up. The quartet of crooners from Philly didn't disappoint as II continued the group's reign at the top, especially thanks to smooth ballads like "Water Runs Dry," "On Bended Knee" and of course, "I'll Make Love To You." (The three of us couldn't stop laughing when we were discussing the majesty that was the video for that single. Shout out to sexy finger wags. And if anyone knows the identity of the woman in the video, get @ us about it!). More on Phil Yu Interview with KoreAm Magazine.

Tautologic began in 1997 when Ethan Sellers and Pat Buzby had finished college. Sellers, a vocalist, keyboardist and guitarist, was assembling a new band with friends from his years at the University of Chicago. Buzby, a drummer, had studied at Oberlin and was planning his next move when he read an ad Sellers placed on a progressive rock discussion group. The band took shape and was gigging and recording by the winter of 1998. Sellers and Buzby shared a love of 70’s progressive rock, but also wanted to bring contemporary and eclectic influences into the music rather than reproducing old sounds. The early lineups of the band lacked lead guitar, leading them to use their string arrangement skills to give the songs much of their character. Pointed, humorous lyrics and stories of the strange characters in abundance around the South Side of Chicago also linked many of Tautologic’s songs. West Is North, East Is South, the band’s debut CD, captured this era. It received critical acclaim in the U.S. and Europe upon its release in 2000. The band’s next recording, The Basement Sessions, arrived in 2002 and showed the band experimenting with funk influences, and introducing lead guitar into the mix. Also in 2002, Sellers staged a multimedia piece, At the Apartment, featuring songs from the Basement Sessions and other Tautologic material. In 2005, the band put on a second theatrical piece, Psychle. Sellers finished producing a recording of these newer songs in 2007, but financial setbacks forced him to archive the CD, Re:Psychle, for a decade. With many of the early members of the group finishing their studies in Chicago and moving on to other states, Sellers and Buzby needed to build new band lineups in the 2000’s. Bassist Nathan Britsch began working with them in the early part of that decade, saxophonist Chris Greene and violinist/vocalist Emily Albright joined in the mid-00’s, and newest member guitarist Jay Montana arrived in 2010. Re:Psychle also includes prominent contributions from former band members, including guitarist Aaron Weistrop, violinist Jeff Yang and vocalist Jennifer Justice. In the late 2000’s, Sellers began a new career as a leader of bands in various styles, including Irish music, Cajun and bluegrass, which is still ongoing. Buzby and other members of Tautologic participate in these groups whenever possible. Finally, at the end of 2017, the time is right for a release of Re:Psychle, and Tautologic’s return to a more active schedule. Radio One Chicago airs live every Thursday night from 6p to 8p on 88.7f, wluw.org
The Marvel superhero blockbuster Black Panther generated a respectable $100 million at the Chinese box office in March, making it the film's top overseas market. The movie had a very strong opening in China, earning more than $60 million during its first but then dropped off quickly. The seemingly sharp fall in attendance prompted Western media outlets to write a series of articles suggesting that Chinese moviegoers objected to Black Panther because of its all-black leading cast. “A torture for the eyes: Chinese moviegoers think Black Panther is just too black," read Quartz reporter Echo Huang's dismally-sourced story where she relied on online movie review sites, often filled with troll-like comments, as evidence of Chinese racism towards black people. Not surprisingly, Huang's article went viral and sparked a lively discussion on social media about the supposedly pervasive racism in China towards black people. That Quartz story and others that linked Black Panther's box office performance to Chinese racial attitudes toward black people was quickly challenged by other media outlets, social media influencers and scholars who all highlighted that Chinese reaction to the film was nowhere as racially-tinged as had been suggested. "Cherry-picking negative posts on an anonymous reviews site isn’t a particularly fair way to assess Chinese attitudes toward black people (and one is likely to find plenty of racist comments on English language online chats too)," said San Franciso-based writer Jeff Yang in response to the Western media's reporting on Black Panther's supposedly lackluster response in China. Roberto Castillo couldn't agree more with Yang. Castillo, an assistant professor at Ling Nan University in Hong Kong, is one of the leading scholars on the African diaspora in China with a particular focus on African and black media perceptions in the PRC. He joins Eric & Cobus to discuss the Chinese response to Black Panther and why the Western media continues to misunderstand Chinese racial views towards black people. Join the discussion. What do you think of how Chinese moviegoers responded to Black Panther and the broader issue of Chinese perceptions of black and African people in the media? Let us know what you think.

NPR’s recently released diversity numbers showed little improvement in 2016, and many other outlets have declined to even release their numbers. So why is it so hard to create a diverse newsroom? Hosts Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela lead a discussion with reporter Farai Chideya and writer Jeff Yang on what newsrooms miss when they aren’t diverse, and why diversity in newsrooms is more crucial now than ever.
