UNFILTERED Ep 119 Remembering Matt Chan

Send us Fan Mail Seattle lost a great storyteller and community activist. Matt Chan passed away from kidney cancer on Saturday, March 30. He was 71 years old. After appearing on the first UNFILTERED, Matt knew his declining health would not let him continue. He told his Chino Y Chicano podcast partner, Enrique Cerna that he wanted UNFILTERED to continue because he believed it was an important and needed conversation. On this episode, we celebrate Matt as well as his commitment to storytelling and communities of color. Rest in Peace and Power, Matt Chan. UNFILTERED features Enrique Cerna, Debora Juarez and Omari Salisbury. The trio weighs in with candid insights and opinions on local, regional, national news affecting our lives. UNFILTERED is a co-production of Chino Y Chicano and Converge Media.
