Interesting how you can watch a TV show for many years, yet remain (willfully?) blind to a very stereotyped, and thus racist, performance. Looking fwd to "The Problem with Apu."

"The Problem with Apu" is a documentary that references a "Simpsons" character as it explores how Asian Americans are portrayed by marketers, advertisers and the media
— CNN International (@cnni) November 18, 2017

"The perception of Asian Americans as smart, successful, hard-working, respectful, unobtrusive, and quiet does its own harm in our society."
— The Establishment (@ESTBLSHMNT) November 18, 2017

*facepalm* there's a documentary about the problem with Apu from the Simpsons being a stereotype. Have people watched the show? That's the entirety of that shows characters. Everyone equally parodied.

“The Problem with Apu” doubles as a film about what it means to be South Asian in the American imagination:
— The New Yorker (@NewYorker) November 17, 2017

I know people won't want hear about Kondabolu's experiences because they love The Simpsons. I think it's ok to say we've enjoyed and laughed at Apu while agreeing it's been a damaging stereotype that needs to be left in the past
— Dean Van Nguyen (@deanvannguyen) November 19, 2017

Prediction: There is going to be a strong overlap between people who think "The Problem With Apu" is just annoying-PC snowflake sensitivity, and people who think Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory is an awful stereotype designed to give the general public another nerd to sneer at.

Had an incredible time at the world premiere of Hari Kondabolu's documentary "The Problem with Apu". Thoughtful, compelling, intelligent film about South Asian representation in the media, racist caricatures, and how they fuel biases. Congrats to @harikondabolu for a brilliant film and speaking on a topic that has gone ignored by the majority of us non-South Asians. The film airs on @trutv on November 19 at 10pm. . . . . . . . . #nyc

My sweet, smart, hilarious friend and long time client @harikondabolu was on @thedailyshow and @theviewabc all in one week promoting his new documentary ! I am so unbelievably proud of how far you’ve come and much you continue to dive into the American subconscious via your comedy. You deserve it all! ✨?✨ #hairbywilliamblair

#fbf to watching and then observing a great Q&A with @harikondabolu. #smithsonianassociates #documentary #trutv #thesimpsons #realtalk #stereotypes

Check out facebook.com/truTV at 1PM ET/10AM PT to see @harikondabolu answer your questions about #TheProblemWithApu LIVE.

So let's discuss The Simpsons. #TheSimpsons was a groundbreaking show that mocks people from all walks of life, but other portrayals don’t hinge on a racist depiction of the character. Two years before I came to this country, another South Asian had arrived: Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, the popular Simpsons character who runs the local Kwik-E-Mart and gleefully rips everyone off, and informed SO MANY PEOPLE'S perceptions of what Indians are (and how best to mock them). Many have talked about the more obvious ways Apu has perpetuated dangerous ideas about South Asian Americans, but less discussed is how he has embodied and perpetuated the pervasive & damaging #ModelMinority myth. Apu manages to embody two pervasive stereotypes—he is at once an annoying convenience store owner, ready to be laughed at and mocked, and a nerdy geek aligned with the #modelminoritymyth, ready to be pigeonholed and overlooked. Ahead of the release of @harikondabolu's documentary #TheProblemwithApu, which comes out this weekend on @trutv, I got to write about why my problem with Apu is reflective of an actual issue in society for The Establishment (@the_estblshmnt). Link in my Twitter if you're interested.

What’s #theproblemwithapu? Plenty. I talked to @harikondabolu about his new doc airing on @trutv Sunday and how when your community becomes represented by a cartoon - it can have real world implications. Check out my story on @cnnmoney #cnnmoney #thesimpsons #apu #trutv

Saw tonight and really enjoyed it. #harikondabolu said it is sort of a love letter to the community and is a starting point to have larger conversations on diversity, etc. Thank you @harikondabolu for making this film! Everyone watch it on truTV this Sunday night!

Apu may be a well-liked character on #TheSimpsons, but the one-dimensional portrayal has stuck with Indian Americans for years. But that's problematic - as comedian @harikondobolu explores in his @truTV documentary #TheProblemwithApu. Even though Asian Americans are one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the U.S. -- and one of the wealthiest -- they are often overlooked by marketers, advertisers and the media. #asianamericans #indianamericans #business #markets #cnnmoney

For @harikondabolu, this is personal. Watch the premiere of #TheProblemWithApu tonight at 10/9c on truTV!

Tonight @trutv is showing @harikondabolu ‘s documentary where he takes a critical look at America’s favorite convenience store clerk. I’m keen to see it, on the one hand Apu was maybe the only Indian character on tv for years, sticking out against the mostly yellow-skinned people of #Springfield and most of the sitcom landscape of the 90s; on the other hand most people only know him for his goofy accent and catchphrase.
