"As an Asian Queer filmmaker and producer, I understand the importance of visibility and representation, particularly during a time when hostility toward people of color and the LGBTQ+ community is prevalent. 'Laugh Proud' is not only a platform for diverse comedians to showcase their talents but also a celebration of resilience, joy, and unity within our community." - Quentin Lee
