Serica is delighted to share that “From Kingston, Jamaica, to Jamaica, Queens,” episode three of our co-produced series with PBS/WNET, Between Black and White: Asian Americans Speak Out, has been named an official selection of the 2024 Seattle Asian American Film Festival and the 2024 Phoenix Film Festival.
The series explores how cross-racial and cross-cultural solidarity between Asian Americans and other communities of color have been tested, and what those lessons can teach us about our current fight for tolerance and justice
The final episode of Between Black and White: Asian Americans Speak Out profiles Patricia “Miss Pat” Chin, co-founder of VP Records and an icon in the reggae music industry. Miss Pat’s journey from Kingston, Jamaica, to Jamaica, Queens, reflects a life dedicated to bridging cultures through music.
This episode captures her indomitable spirit and the lessons she’s learned in navigating cross-cultural spaces. Miss Pat’s story is a powerful reminder of how the arts can transcend boundaries and bring communities together.
