White House Asks Asian Americans for Video Stories

White House wants people to share stories on their communities.

The White House is asking Asian American and Pacific Islanders to submit a video on personal stories that have impacted people in their community.

The effort, called “What’s Your Story” can be a 3-minute music video, public service announcement, short film or video blog that discusses important issues facing the Asian American community. Essays under 1,000 words will also be accepted.

Entries should be submitted online by Nov. 1.

A video describing the initiative is available here.
