Reviews & Quotes | Blurring the Color Line

 

Texas Southern University | Dr. Karen Kossie-Chervnyshev, Professor of History
"Kwok chose the term "Blurring" to highlight the Chinese American experience -- one centered in the middle of blackness and whiteness --a distinction captured in one of the questions posed in the film, 'Where did Asians sit on the bus?'"

University of Hong Kong | Dr. Elizabeth LaCouture, Professor of Gender Studies
"Racialized discrimination does not fit into boxes. It is shifting and blurry. That is where the film ends up and that is what Crystal discussed so beautifully."

Educational Media Reviews Online (EMRO) | Mary Kamela, Student Support and Engagement Librarian, University at Buffalo
"The documentary asks vital questions and brings under-studied issues to light. The film includes reenactments, archival footage, interviews with Kwok’s family and other Chinese and Black community members, and an inner monologue from Kwok herself, where she considers the nuances of racism, intersectionality, and the various roles her family played and continue to play."
