"Community was such a powerful theme in the movie. It is really unbelievable, amazing, overwhelming, astonishing… how much work goes into making change." Some great feedback from our screening with the Cathedral School for Boys community. Thank you for the encouraging words.

The Immigration Act of 1965 opened the flood gates to an influx of immigrants that poured into SF Chinatown. A housing, education, and employment crisis ensued and a revolution was born. #apahm #chinatownrising #asianamericanhistory

"Asian American history isn't something we learn about, ever. I feel like just watching this for the past hour and a half, I've learned more about Asian American history than I have the past 15 years I've been in school." -Mary, Student, Florida State University #chinatownrising
