Circular logo for Asian American film criticism.

Kultura Dallas is built on a straightforward belief: Asian American life in DFW serious critical attention. This attention takes more than celebration and documentation. 

We are asking for the type of attention that asks what a film, a song, an event, and a community means, what it costs, and what is recovers.

What Sets Us Apart

Asian American criticism has the platforms, publications, and institutions that shape the discourse concentrated on two coasts — and they reflect that concentration in what they cover, who they publish, and what they treat as central.

 

Kultura Dallas is a public platform for critical writing about Asian American culture, rooted in Dallas–Fort Worth, edited by a Filipino American scholar, and committed to the questions that get asked when you build something outside the expected places.
