CREATING

COMMUNITY

& CULTURE

My name is Solomon Keali’iho’omalu Pagaduan Chang. I came up in the Bay Area’s vibrant arts activism scene, graduated from UCLA’s Film, Television & Digital Media program in 2023, and currently work as a community organizer at Atlanta’s Asian American Advocacy Fund. Inspired by my magnificent communities and cultures, I love telling visual stories and creating fresh avenues towards peace for all of us in-between.

STORY SPOTLIGHT

A year in the life of Tatu Vision — an Oakland-based grassroots organization building towards community empowerment, youth entrepreneurship and radical social change through hosting hip-hop arts gatherings at the Alan Blueford Center for Justice.
