After St. Louis news anchor Michelle Li mentioned eating dumplings on a New Year’s broadcast, a viewer chastised her for being “very Asian.” She’s now turned that viral moment into a movement with the Very Asian Foundation. She discusses the organization’s push for schools and libraries to build and maintain robust Asian American youth literature collections.
