'Change Hope and Equality for Asian-American' B.D. Wong Lectures at SCC
      Kicking off the month of May as Asian Pacific American Heritage month is one of America's most versatile young actors, B.D. Wong, who will address issues of racial self-image, race-based rejection, Asian-American parental pressure and the "model minority myth" at a lecture at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 1 at Shoreline Community College.
      Wong is currently best known for his portrayal of Father Ray Mukada, the compassionate and tireless Catholic priest in the controversial HBO TV series "Oz." His feature film roles among many appearances include a signature comedy role as the outrageous wedding coordinator's assistant, playing opposite Martin Short in "Father of the Bride" (Parts I and II), as well as feature roles in "Jurassic Park", "Seven Years in Tibet" and a leading voice in Disney's animated hit "Mulan".
      Wong earned a Tony Award for his starring role on Broadway in "M. Butterfly"; a play by David Hwang, and critical acclaim for his roles as Linus in the Broadway revival of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown "and as Ariel in Shakespeare's "The Tempest." He has guest-starred on "X-Files", "Sesame Street", "Chicago Hope", and he co-starred with comedian Margaret Cho on her series, "All-American Girl".
      Wong enjoys a second career traveling to colleges and high schools sharing his unique points of view around racial diversity and racism awareness. His retelling of his experience as a young man of color on the path to becoming a world class artist have made for interesting presentations. He has received a number of awards from Asian American organizations such as the Asian-American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF), the Association of Asian-Pacific American Artists (AAPAA), the Coro Foundation, and others.
      General admission is $10, $7 for seniors and SCC faculty and staff, and $5 for children 14 and younger and SCC students with college ID. Call (206) 546-4606 to order tickets or purchase at the door.
