SUMMARY:Chinese Exclusion Act Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:A PBS “American Experience” Original Documentary (PG) \nThe Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 had a profound influence on immigration during and beyond its 60 year period of enforcement. This act barred Chinese workers from coming to this country\, and prohibited Chinese nationals\, who were already here in the United States as laborers for American railroads and other industries\, from ever gaining citizenship. \nJoin us for a screening of the abridged 30 minute version of this documentary. Learn about the origins\, history and impact of the first US immigration law to target a specific nationality of people. \nThis program is presented through a partnership between the Arlington Public Library and the 1882 Foundation\, a Washington\, DC cultural advocacy and public education agency working to broaden public understanding of the history of Chinese in America and tell of their contributions to the formation and enrichment of the American nation. \nFor more information about this event go to: https://arlingtonva.libcal.com/event/4264668\n \nPlease RSVP for an event reminder! This event is free and open to all. \n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Talk Story: Annual Review & Pioneer Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends:\n\nEach December\, we have an end-of-year wrap up for our Talk Story program. We hope you can join us for a special wrap up at The Chinatown Garden Restaurant over a “Pioneer Meal\,” RR exhibit and annual review on Sunday\, December 17\, at 6:30 pm.Doors open at 5:30pm.\n\nWe are planning for our eighth season of monthly community Talk Story Events in Chinatown\, DC and organizing our sixth 1882 Symposium of museums and public educators of Chinese American history\, as well as expanding our teacher training and curriculum programs to Richmond and Norfolk in 2018 as well as nationally to Sacramento in the form.of our promotion of “Heritage Tours.”\n\nAll of this has been made possible by collaborations among stakeholders sharing a common goal to broaden public awareness of Chinese American history and heritage\, by short term grants for specific events\, and– most importantly–by the boundless devotion of our community volunteers and partners. In our seven active years\, we have never charged a participation or admission fee for any of our events and workshops. We have never held a fund raiser.\n\nWe like it that way\, but our programs are growing and\, as we plan for 2018\, we hope you can consider making a donation of any amount. We are an IRS-approved nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. Checks to the “1882 Foundation ” can be mailed to: 1882 Foundation\, 508 I Street NW\, lower level\, Washington DC 20001.\n\nThanks for your support and wishing everyone a happy New year!\n\nTed Gong\, Executive Director\n1882 Foundation\n‘

SUMMARY:Chinese American Experiences in History and Short Films: A Traveling Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Join 1882 Foundation for the first installment of our traveling seminars. Seminars feature short documentary film screenings\, expert speakers\, discussions of key historical themes\, and lesson plans for educators. The first session is geared towards teachers and the second session towards the general public (though all are welcome to attend either). The seminars will shed light on the Chinese American experience\, what it means to be American\, and why that story and that of all Asian Americans must be told. \n\nFIRST SESSION: Recruited\, Excluded\, and (sort of) Included: the Asian American Experience seen through short films\nAug. 29\, 12:30 to 3:30 PM\nArlington County Teachers Workshop\nArlington Traditional School\n855 N. Edison St.\nArlington\, VA 22206 \n\nChinese came to America looking for “Gold Mountain” in the 1850s and then to build the Transcontinental Railroad. But in 1882 and for 60 years after\, Chinese Americans and later all Asians were not allowed into the U.S. and denied citizenship if already here. Fitting into American life was especially difficult given this legacy of exclusion. Teachers will explore this history and view two contemporary short films. “Through Chinatown’s Eyes: April 1968” is about the Washington\, DC riots following Martin Luther King’s assassination and its impact on Chinatown. “Finding Cleveland” follows a young Los Angeles man seeking his Chinese roots and unexpectedly finds himself tracing the path of his father and grandfather to Cleveland\, Miss. in the heart of the Jim Crow south. A panel discussion will follow with filmmakers Lisa Mao and Larissa Lim and noted scholars Janelle Wong (University of Maryland) and Krystyn Moon (University of Mary Washington). Teachers will also receive lessons addressing the history of exclusion and issues of identity raised by the films. \nSpeakers/Panelists: Janelle Wong (U. of Maryland)\, Krystyn Moon (U. of Mary Washington)\, Larissa Lam (filmmaker of Finding Cleveland)\, Lisa Mao (filmmaker of Through Chinatown’s Eyes: April 1968) \n\nSECOND SESSION: Recruited\, Excluded\, and (sort of) Included: the Asian American Experience seen through short films\nAug. 29\, 7:00 to 9:00 PM\nOpen to the Community\nKenmore Middle School\n200 S. Carlin Springs Rd.\nArlington\, VA 22204\n \n\nIn the evening\, we will be showing the same two films but with a different perspective: how do changing communities such as Arlington build on the strengths of their individual communities (Asian\, Latino\, Black\, and White). The idea here is to for people to understand how important it is for all the communities to get to know each other and their history. Panelists include Samir Meghelli\, (Curator\, Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum)\, Marya McQuirter (DC 1968 Project) and Larissa Lam \nAgain\, the seminars will need to be tailored to each venue\, but this may give you a few ideas. The films I would like to use in Norfolk are Finding Samuel Lowe and Finding Cleveland. “Finding Samuel Lowe” is longer – by Paula Madison runs 40 minutes but is excellent. We showed it in DC at our annual 1882 Symposium. It’s about three African American siblings\, one of them Paula\, who grew up in Harlem with their Chinese/Jamaican mother. They follow a trail to Jamaica\, Toronto\, and then to China to learn about their Chinese grandfather. At the critical juncture of venturing off to China\, Paula’s husband asks her\, “What do you expect? You know you’re Black?” She laughs and says\, “I know I’m Black! I expect that because I am their family and they are my family\, we’ll be family… I know that I am a Lowe\, and they will want me as much as I want them.” \n\nOur events are free and open to all. For questions\, or to get involved\, please contact Ting-Yi Oei at tyoei66@gmail.com. \nClick here for general flyer!
