Jon Moritsugu (b. 1965) is an American cult underground filmmaker.

His work deals with discrimination against Asian-Americans and the legacy of white supremacy in America. His films have shown in Sundance, Cannes, Berlin, Toronto, Rotterdam, Venice, New York Underground, Chicago Underground, MoMA, Guggenheim, Whitney and numerous other festivals and museums. He lives and works in Manoa. His book "Numbskull Revolution" is forthcoming in 2022.
