Tonight on Apex Express we hear from Artists Shaking Things Up. First we chat with International dancer, scholar and educator Tara Pandeya and then we speak with Visual Artists and curator Justin Charles Hoover about the new exhibit “Don’t Believe the Hype, Asian Americans in Hip Hop.”

We will also hear some tracks from Jason Chu’s latest album and hear the Powerleegirls Miko Lee, Ayame Keane-Lee and Jalena Keane-Lee riff about politics, arts and culture.
