The Art of Storytelling in Chinatown: Behind the Stories
Oral History by Think! Chinatown
In celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, we brought back our heartwarming Chinatown animated shorts for a special encore virtual screening. These stories bring us into the everyday lives of people who have long called Chinatown home and challenge us to reimagine how we collectively remember and honor the stories of our communities. How do we bring our communities into the fold as integral, active participants in the telling of their own stories? How do we engage the larger community in this collective remembering?
Special appearances from our Chinatown storytellers, Margaret Yuen & Jan Lee, and artists, Yao Xiao, John Lee, and Cindy Trinh.
