In this episode of A Black Executive Perspective, host Tony Tidbit sits down with the award-winning documentary producer and director, Eurie Chung, for a powerful conversation on filmmaking, representation, and the uphill battle to fund diverse stories. Eurie shares her unexpected journey into the world of film and the ongoing challenges of amplifying marginalized voices in an industry that often overlooks them. They dive into her acclaimed documentary Third Act, which chronicles the legacy of Bob Nakamura—widely regarded as the godfather of Asian American cinema—and the emotional journey of his son, Tad Nakamura, in telling his father’s story. More than a discussion about film, this episode explores empathy, cross-cultural solidarity, and why listening is essential to advancing justice and equality for all communities.
