The Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center and Flickr issued the following announcement of “A Day in the Life of Asian Pacific America.”
=*=
Somewhere in Asian Pacific America,
a child cries;
a father cooks breakfast;
a mother dresses and goes to work.
A thousand tasks get done.
A thousand dreams are born.
“A Day in the Life of Asian Pacific America” seeks to capture the particulars of everyday life and piece them together to compose the ultimate wide shot. By looking at life from multiple angles, curated from the visual documentation of amateur photographers and videographers as well as professional documentarians and photojournalists, we can reveal the bigger picture. Through this online exhibit hosted by the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center (APAC) at http://apa.si.edu, we celebrate our common joys, empathize with our sorrows, and appreciate all that we mean to each another.
We are asking thousands of people to take photographs and shoot video about Asian Pacific American life on May 10, 2014. We chose this date because it falls on the 145th anniversary of the Golden Spike ceremony that marked the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad. This historical joining of the continent was marked with a photograph that excluded the Chinese workers who were critical to the building of the railroad and the industrial modernization of America.
Once erased from historical consciousness, Asian Pacific Americans are now visible in profound ways.
We are seeking professional and amateur photojournalists and filmmakers of all ages and backgrounds to contribute submissions to the online exhibit.
Let’s document Asian Pacific American life. Here’s how you can be part of this exhibition.
