The Story of Phoeun You

After spending my childhood listening to the Bay Area’s NPR station, I put my own stamp on the iconic station’s reporting in 2022. I created a beat covering blue-collar workers’ protests against their employers, fighting for better treatment. I pitched a unique feature on the South Asian Literature and Arts Festival, the first in the news station’s history. I covered youth climate protests across the Bay Area, and more. Check out some of the highlights from my published and recorded work at KQED below.
