Alums produce video of anti-racist poetry performance

Alums Quinn Russell Brown (鈥13, Society, Ethics & Human Behavior) and Aaron Middleton (鈥13, Media & Communication Studies) produced a short video of local artist Troy Osaki鈥檚 poetry performance, 鈥淵ear of the Dragon,鈥 a homage to martial arts legend Bruce Lee and his struggle against racism. When Brown first heard Osaki recite the poem at a fundraiser months earlier, he was deeply moved and approached Osaki about creating a video. Brown then reached out to Middleton, a long-time collaborator, whom he met at UW Bothell, and Middleton immediately signed on. Read on the project and watch 鈥.鈥
