Wong often couldn't play romantic leads because of laws prohibiting actors of different races from kissing each other onscreen. She moved to Europe, where she enjoyed greater opportunities, but continued to bump up against unfair restrictions in Hollywood. https://t.co/mwe0tBpyIO https://t.co/pknz7mFJ9d — PolitiTweet.org

The quarter recognizes Wong’s trailblazing career and the difficulties she faced trying to secure meaningful roles as an Asian American actress a century ago. (She famously said that she had “died a thousand deaths” because she was killed in every film she acted in.) https://t.co/aLEg5mr5Wf — PolitiTweet.org

Wong was considered a shoo-in for the lead actress role in "The Good Earth," but was taken out of the running when a white actor, who would have played her husband, was selected to star in the film. The actress who got the part, Luise Rainer, won an Oscar for her performance. — PolitiTweet.org
