Unheard LA: Join Our Storytellers As They Tackle The Origin Stories That Define Us
Unheard LA is KPCC/LAist's live storytelling series featuring authentic first-person experiences. As we take a break from the stage, we've created a series of new virtual experiences that revisit some stories from past shows as starting points for deeper listening and insightful conversations.
Tonight at 6:30, storytellers Angela Sanchez, Matt Sedillo, and Jin Yoo-Kim will join Bruce Lemon, Jr. and Race In LA's Dana Amihere to dig into origin stories and the early life experiences that make us who we are.
Pay-what-you-want tickets available here. Watch live above starting at 6:30 p.m.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
