Tickets Now Available for Chinatown Rising

May 22, 2023

Chinatown Rising is a documentary film about the Asian American Movement from the perspective of the young residents on the front lines of their historic neighborhood in transition. Through publicly challenging the conservative views of their elders, their demonstrations and protests of the 1960s-1970s rattled the once quiet streets during the community’s shift in power. Forty five years later, and in collaboration with his son, Josh Chuck, the film presents intimate interviews with these activists recalling their roles and experiences in response to the need for social change.
