Local artist Naomi Yang first went to Bartolo's Boxing Gym in East Boston to scout for a photo shoot, not learn to fight.

That visit changed her life.

Yang joined Radio Boston to talk about her new film "Never Be a Punching Bag for Nobody," which profiles her journey of self-discovery through boxing and the personal stories she uncovered about East Boston's history of activism.

This segment aired on June 22, 2023.
