Description

May is Asian and Pacific Islander American Heritage Month, a time to reflect on how these communities have shaped the history of the U.S. while also examining the struggles and discrimination they have faced in America. Author Celeste Ng joins CBS News' Elaine Quijano to discuss her best-seller turned Hulu series "Little Fires Everywhere,” as well as her journey as a writer and her efforts to bring more diversity to the publishing industry. “One of the things we need to do is to create a space where that writing about being 'other' and different experiences is valued and people can advocate for that kind of work," Ng said, adding, "But we also need people to open the gates for those stories and to champion them and bring them out."
