Billy Graham was a steady presence in my Korean immigrant household growing up. He was a clear example of white evangelicalism impinging on my family beyond our Korean imm. church (others: Hosanna & Vineyard music, Focus on the Family). 1/n #BillyGrahamPBS tinyurl.com/mwpev8xe
I vividly recall sitting on ice-cold bleachers & hard concrete at BGEA crusades at Shea (RIP) & Giant Stadiums with my mom. Graham’s 1952 book “Peace with God” sat on our family bookshelf my entire childhood. By age 18, I'd read it a half dozen times or more. 2/n #BillyGrahamPBS 
That's probably why I found #BillyGrahamPBS so hard to watch. In clips of 1950s Graham, his similarity w/recent televangelist hucksters so disturbed me I actually turned the TV off. It's one thing to read about his early career. It’s another thing to watch Graham firsthand. 3/n
