Description
Consisting of twenty-two interviews with a diverse array of Chinatown residents and framed by three essays situating the interviews in a social and political context, Chinatown Lives focuses on residents’ definitions of their own community and neighborhood in terms of people, events, and institutions. As Sze preserves and documents the community’s history from its own perspective, she offers a portrait of a vibrant neighborhood both deeply rooted and continually evolving.
