Grace Ly
Grace Ly is a writer, director and podcast host.
Grace Ly was a shy and insecure little girl because of her Chinese and Cambodian origins before she felt the desire to tell stories in order to get rid of the preconceived ideas, stereotypes and prejudices linked to her family heritage.
By questioning society, its history, the weight of racism and sexism, and the place of plurality in our cultural productions, she contributes to proposing positive representations through various creative formats: a blog, a web series, works of literature and non-fiction, and a series of podcasts that have totaled more than 4 million listens.
Her background and experiences in the arts and media are a testament to the desire for social justice in French society today.
