It's "Neighbor Day" on Sesame Street and everyone has something special to share! Created for families to watch together, See Us Coming Together is a special that celebrates the rich diversity of Asian and Pacific Islander communities as part of Sesame Workshop’s ongoing racial justice initiative. The special follows the Sesame Street friends through a community celebration with new friend Ji-Young—a seven-year-old Korean American character performed by Sesame Workshop puppeteer Kathleen Kim. Original music and celebrity guests like actors Simu Liu and Anna Cathcart, comic book artist Jim Lee, chef Melissa King, television personality Padma Lakshmi, and athlete Naomi Osaka round out the celebration!
Directed by Alan Muraoka, Matt Vogel, Sesame Street: See Us Coming Together leans on a strong ensemble — Tau Bennett, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, Warrick Brownlow-Pike — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2021.
