Self Evident is a new podcast taking on what it means to be American by telling Asian America’s stories. With host Cathy Erway, the show will tackle today’s tough questions about identity, cultural change and nationhood by presenting reported narratives, community conversations, and personal stories. The team of award-winning producers, filmmakers, and journalists — from recognized public radio institutions like Latino USA, Gimlet Creative, The Moth, and Snap Judgment — hopes to establish a new lineage of Asian American storytellers who are creating deeper representation of Asian American perspectives and experiences through audio.

To kick off Season 1, the Self Evident team is bringing these stories to the stage! Join us for an evening of live storytelling, engaging discussion and celebration presented in partnership with CAAM.

Co-presented by Oakland Asian Cultural Center and Center for Asian American Media.
