We tell Asian America’s stories to go beyond being seen. As people of all backgrounds reckon with complex legacies of race, power, culture, and identity and ask themselves, “Where do I stand?” Self Evident presents reported stories and radically open conversations from the everyday Asian Americans who have been confronting this question for generations. Our mission is to empower local communities to share stories and build relationships around the value of self-representation. Self Evident is a Studiotobe production, made with support from our listener community.

Beginning October 22nd, you’ll have the opportunity to share your stories during the StoryCorps MobileBooth’s month-long visit to Hampton Roads. At the MobileBooth, interviews are conducted between two people who know and care about each other. You’ll hear a selection of these local stories on WHRV, and we’ll even create special programs around the project. Some segments may air nationally on NPR’s Morning Edition.
