Event
[SOLD OUT] THE CHINESE GARDENS and Panel Discussion
Co-presented by OCA Seattle.
Director: Valerie Soe
17 minutes (2012)
Short film and discussion
Through text, brief interviews, and images of the empty spaces of Port Townsend, Washington's former Chinatown, the film examines anti-Chinese violence and the lost Chinese community in the Pacific Northwest in the late 1800s. The film documents Chinese American resistance and draws connections between past and present race relations in this country. THE CHINESE GARDENS was an official selection of the Dallas VideoFest 25 and Claremont Colleges Asian Americans in Media Film Festival.
Discussion panel with Valerie Soe, director of CHINESE GARDENS and Bettie Luke, Chinese Expulsion Remembrance Project 2011 Chair and sister of Wing Luke.
